Fifty-five people have been arrested in London at a rally against the proscription of Palestine Action outside the UK parliament on Saturday, according to the Metropolitan Police.
Demonstrators gathered in support of the organisation, which was proscribed under anti-terror laws earlier this month.
They held up placards reading "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action" before police began bundling attendees into vans.
Similar protests took place in Edinburgh, Cornwall and other parts of the country, also leading to arrests.
A counter-demonstration by pro-Israel activists in London - holding placards that read "there is no genocide" and describing the population of Gaza as "2 million human shields" - was shielded by police.
