THOUSANDS of pro-Palestine activists will form a human chain around Parliament tonight to demand the new government stop enabling Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza.

Campaign Against Arms Trade (CAAT) estimates that the value of arms exports to Israel is twice as high as the government claims — at least £1 billion since 2015.
