A dozen people were arrested in London during Al-Quds Day protests as police separated pro-Palestinian and pro-Iranian regime demonstrators from counter-protesters on opposite banks of the River Thames. Britain's Home Secretary Shibata Mahmood banned marching, ordering protesters to demonstrate in place, with 12 arrests made for threatening behaviour and supporting proscribed terrorist organisations. Police deployed nearly as many officers as protesters in the operation, with investigations ongoing into chants from music artist Bob Villan.
