London Protest: Activists Confront UK Minister Over Arms Sales to Israel

Pro-Palestinian activists staged a protest outside the Foreign Office in London on May 21, 2025, directly confronting UK Middle East Minister Hamish Falconer. Their main concern was the UK government's continued supply of arms to Israel amid the ongoing conflict. One activist is heard saying, "Why are you still continuing to send arms to Israel? Why are you denying that there is a genocide when our hearts were being torn?" Another activist added, "You are supporting war crimes. 14,000 children are starving to death." Falconer remained largely silent during the encounter, which was filmed and widely shared on social media. The incident highlights the growing frustration and anger among pro-Palestinian groups over the UK's role in the conflict. The video underscores the humanitarian crisis in the region and serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of war.
