Thousands Rally In London For Nakba Anniversary Amid Gaza Strikes And Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Talks

Marking 77 years since the Nakba, tens of thousands joined a massive pro-Palestine protest in London, organised by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign. The march, from Embankment to Downing Street, condemned the ongoing "ethnic cleansing" of Palestinians. It coincided with Israel’s intensified bombing of Gaza, killing over 150 in 24 hours. As ceasefire talks resumed in Doha, Israel threatened continued military operations unless progress was made. The symbolic protest amplified global calls for justice and peace as Israeli forces escalated operations and Hamas agreed to rejoin negotiations under mounting pressure. #Palestine #Nakba77 #GazaUnderAttack #LondonProtest #FreePalestine #IsraelHamas #GazaCrisis #NakbaDay #CeasefireNow #PalestinianRights #StopTheBombing #EndTheSiege #ProPalestine #SolidarityMarch #DohaTalks #HumanRights #NakbaAnniversary #GazaBombing #HamasIsrael #UKProtest ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.125~
