Protesters are set to flood London's streets once again as tensions surrounding the Gaza conflict continue to stir unrest in the United Kingdom. Demonstrations are planned to call for the release of hostages in Gaza.

Organized by Stop the Hate, the march will proceed through central London towards No. 10 Downing Street. This follows Saturday's mass arrests of 474 protesters demonstrating against a banned pro-Palestinian group. Among the anticipated attendees is Noga Guttman, a relative of a kidnapped individual featured in a controversial Hamas video.

Palestine Action is challenging the UK government's decision to deem the group a terrorist organization, following its protest against British support for Israel. The legal battle reflects the profound tensions over public support and governmental action involving the Gaza situation.
