DEMONSTRATIONS, vigils and protests were staged across Britain to call for peace on the October 7 Hamas attack anniversary, which preceded the launch of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza.

Calls for a ceasefire were made at events in communities, by international humanitarian groups and political leaders.

Students staged a national day of action demanding universities in Britain sever their ties with Israel.
