Protesters stage sit-in at Waterloo station, calling for Gaza ceasefire

Hundreds of protestors staged a sit-in at Waterloo station on Saturday (28 October), calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

In the footage, hundreds of demonstrators can be heard chanting “Free Palestine” while sat in a circle on the floor of Britain’s busiest train station.

This came on the same day as around 100,000 pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered in central London, after Israel intensified its bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
