Over 300 arrested outside US Embassy in London during Palestine Action protests

More than 300 people were detained at the US Embassy in London as demonstrators rallied in support of the proscribed group Palestine Action. The arrests came during protests aimed at the embassy, which activists targeted over US policy in the Israel-Gaza conflict. Police said those detained were taken into custody under laws governing the group's proscription. The demonstrations drew sizeable crowds and continued into the day, with officers managing the scene. The incident adds to a series of confrontations between authorities and activists linked to the banned organisation.
