Sources: 61. Developments: 2. Pro-Palestinian demonstrations have continued across major European and Turkish cities, marking the third anniversary of the October 7, 2023, attacks. In London, recent large-scale mobilizations have seen significant increases in participation. Organizers estimated that approximately 250,000 people marched from Embankment to the British Parliament, featuring speeches from figures such as former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. Protesters demanded that the UK government implement “comprehensive sanctions” against Israel, including an end to arms supplies and intelligence sharing. While the British government suspended roughly 30 of 350 military export licenses in September 2024, demonstrators maintain these measures are insufficient. A smaller pro-Israel counter-demonstration was also held in London. The Metropolitan Police have maintained a “zero-tolerance approach to face coverings used to hide identities.” Recent police reports indicate 20 arrests during mobilizations, involving incidents such as climbing monuments, property damage, and confrontations with officers. Previous arrests included suspected criminal damage to the Battle of Britain memorial and support for the proscribed organization Palestine Action. In Berlin and Dublin, large crowds gathered to voice solidarity with Palestinians and criticize ongoing military strikes. Demonstrators in Germany specifically targeted military export licenses, noting that the government issued licenses worth 736 million euros in the second quarter of 2026. In Turkey, significant marches were organized across cities including Istanbul, Van, Malatya, and Bursa, with participants calling for international action against the humanitarian crisis.
