POLICE have abandoned attempts to relocate this Saturday’s national march for Palestine following pressure from campaigners.

Campaigners said that police had threatened to relocate the London march away from the centre of the capital.

The coalition of groups behind the march, which includes the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Stop the War Coalition and Friends of Al-Aqsa, has already staged 15 peaceful protests against Israel’s war in the Gaza Strip, where the Palestinian death toll has now topped 38,000.
