PRO-PALESTINE activists protested against an Israel fundraiser event attended by its British ambassador Tzipi Hotovely today after she rejected a two-state solution and ruled out a ceasefire in Gaza.
British Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden also attended the event at the Royal Society of Arts (RSA) in London as the “guest of honour,” and Israeli President Isaac Herzog appeared through video link.
The event website called it an opportunity to “take charge and lead a restart of Israel’s economy” following the October 7 Hamas attack.
