- 5 years ago
Scuffles broke out in London on Monday (September 2) as police forcefully removed protestors outside the venue for the world's largest arms fair.
Video shows police removing protesters blocking trucks laden with equipment for the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEi) weapons convention, which takes place next week.
It was the first day of protests against DSEi, with the focus of this protest on Stop Arming Israel.
Huda Ammori from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign said they will not accept the world’s largest arms fair coming to London and called on the UK government to halt arms sales to Israel.
DSEi takes place September 10-13 at the Excel convention centre in London.
