An anti-Israel protester was arrested following a demonstration outside the London branch of Israeli cosmetics shop, Ahava.

The 51-year-old man was arrested for allegedly blocking pro-Israel campaigner Richard Millett from filming, but was released without charge.

Mr Millett had been using a hand-held camera to film a Palestine Solidarity Campaign protest outside the Covent Garden shop last Wednesday evening.

Mr Millett said: "The PSC campaigner approached and tried to stop me taking footage of the protest. Then the campaigner inexplicably threatened to knock the camera out of my hands."
