London police arrested 12 people during Al-Quds Day demonstrations, with nearly 1,000 officers deployed to manage pro-Palestinian, pro-Iranian regime protesters and counter-protesters separated by the Thames River. Britain's Home Secretary Yvette Cooper banned marching, allowing only stationary demonstrations. Arrests were made for threatening behaviour, affray and supporting proscribed organisations including Hezbollah, while police investigate controversial chants calling for death to the IDF.
