A protest in Swiss Cottage, London, saw a group of demonstrators chanting 'I love the 7th of October' and performing Nazi salutes. The protest was organized by the International Jewish Anti-Zionist Network (IJAN). An Asian or Middle Eastern man wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh was among those chanting, and references to Hezbollah were made. The Metropolitan Police faced criticism for initially not intervening, but later arrested a 27-year-old man on suspicion of inciting racial hatred. The police have stated that further offences are being considered and they are aware of the public concern.

    At Swiss Cottage an Asian or Middle Eastern man wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh is chanting "I love 7th of October" & "I love the H letter", I presume he means Hezbollah. The march was arranged by @IJAN_Network. The police present do nothing. https://t.co/XujCjaqs1t
