LONDON, ENGLAND - JUNE 12: Demonstrators gather outside Downing Street demanding justice for Palestine on June 12, 2021 in London, England. In May 2021 Israel launched an 11-day aerial bombardment of Gaza, killing 248, including 66 children and with more than 1,900 wounded. Hamas bombings in Israel during the same period have killed 12 civilians including two children. Many pro-palestinian groups have protested in cities around the world following the latest attacks.
