Campaigners to hold protest against Met for hosting Israeli police delegation
CAMPAIGNERS in east London are hosting a vigil tomorrow against the Metropolitan Police’s “disturbing” decision to welcome a police delegation from Israel to the area.
Hackney police sparked fury last month after announcing on Twitter that the force had been delighted to host a delegation from Israel, which it said also joined a local police patrol.
The visit took place just days after Israeli security force officers fatally shot Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh and attacked mourners at her funeral.
