(LBC) “Jaw-dropping” footage shows that Met Police officers working at a recent London march were unaware that Hezbollah is a proscribed terrorist group.
The officers, who were policing a march in central London last month, told a concerned bystander who informed them that Hezbollah were a banned group that “your opinion is your opinion.”
The Campaign Against Antisemitism said the video was “terrifying.” The Met said that officers had been briefed on the status of Hezbollah and Hamas, but admitted the video showed more needs to be done.
The incident took place on September 28, a day after the death of Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Lebanese group, who are at war with Israel.
