A Jewish academic who grew up in Israel was arrested by London's Metropolitan police following a speech he gave at a pro-Palestine demonstration in the British capital, during which he said that Israel "cannot win against Hamas".
Haim Bresheeth, a child of Holocaust survivors and the founder of the Jewish Network for Palestine, was arrested during a demonstration outside the residence of Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely in north London.
He faces charges of supporting a proscribed organisation, according to a statement given to media outlet Skwawkbox by a police spokesperson.
In a video recording of Bresheeth's arrest, a police officer informs him that he is being arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000 for "making a hate speech".
