Fossil Free London blocks BP headquarters in solidarity with Gaza
Activists block the doors to the headquarters of fossil fuel giant BP in solidarity with Palestine

ENVIRONMENTAL campaigners mounted a protest in support of Palestine today, blockading the London headquarters of oil and gas giant BP in opposition to the firm’s plans to drill for gas off the coast of Gaza.

Fossil Free London mounted its action as Palestine supporters planned another round of nationwide demonstrations next weekend including a mass rally in London.

The campaign group said that BP has been awarded licences to drill for gas off the coast of Gaza by Israel, which stands to reap the benefits of any successful exploration.
