💨 Abstract

In London, two individuals were arrested during a pro-Palestinian protest for shouting "intifada," a term seen as inflammatory by Jewish leaders. This action follows a decision by UK authorities to enforce hate speech laws more strictly after recent attacks on Jewish communities. Police in London and Manchester warned against using slogans like "globalize the intifada," citing concerns over rising tensions and violence. The arrests came amid heightened sensitivities following deadly attacks in Australia and Manchester.
