PALESTINE campaigners gathered in Parliament Square in London today in a vigil for the more than 2,000 children killed in Gaza.

At least 5,700 people have been killed in Israel’s bombardment since October 7, according to the Gaza health ministry.

Medical Aid for Palestine (MAP), the charity which organised the action, called for an immediate ceasefire to stop the loss of thousands more young lives.
