Police conducted mass arrests following a peaceful protest outside HMP Wormwood Scrubs in London, supporting hunger-striking detainee Umer Khalid, who has escalated his protest by refusing water. Khalid is protesting against charges related to Palestine Action, a group labeled as ‘terrorist’ by the UK government, a designation the group disputes. The protest highlighted growing tensions surrounding the treatment of activists in the UK. The event drew significant attention, reflecting broader issues of civil rights and government labeling of organizations.
