On October 31, 2026, 139 people were arrested outside the US Embassy in London during a protest supporting the proscribed group Palestine Action. The Metropolitan Police reported that most arrests were for individuals expressing support for a banned organization under the UK's Terrorism Act. Organizers of Defend Our Juries had planned the demonstration to oppose the government’s ban on Palestine Action, which was imposed in June 2025. Protesters held signs reading "I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action," and some climbed trees near the embassy to avoid arrest. The arrests marked a significant milestone in ongoing tensions over free speech and protest rights in the UK.
