The Metropolitan Police said five arrests were for violent disorder, with one of them also arrested for assault on an emergency worker.<\/p>\n
There were six arrests for Section 4a Public Order Act offences, with four of those for racial or religiously aggravated matters, and one arrest for Section 18 Public Order Act offences.<\/p>\n
Two others were arrested, both on suspicion of common assault and assault on an emergency worker.<\/p>\n
Seven arrests were of pro-Israel protesters, six pro-Palestine and two not clear at this stage, the Met Police said, adding that all those arrested have now been bailed pending further inquiries.<\/p>\n
Metropolitan Police Commander Adam Slonecki said: “We are mindful that Jewish communities are experiencing heightened fear and concern following two-and-a-half years of sustained protest and, in recent months, a series of arsons and other attacks.<\/p>\n
“There is a distinction between protesting in central London and protesting in the heart of communities where the potential to cause serious disruption and intimidation is greater and our policing plan reflects that.”<\/p>\n
