(Jewish News) Protesters attending Saturday’s pro-Palestine demo in central London openly displayed placards expressing support for the proscribed terror group Hezbollah, Jewish News can reveal.
A group of female attendees assembled across the road from Russell Square tube station, where the march organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and other groups [had] begun, held aloft self-made pro-Hezbollah banners.
One read “Hezbollah are NOT terrorists” — even though the Lebanese Shia Islamist group, who have repeatedly launched barrages of missiles into Israel, has been proscribed as a terror organisation in this country since 2019.
Another banner praised the group’s late secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah, who was assassinated in an airstrike in Beirut last month. It declared: “Nasrallah is NOT a terrorist!”
