US EditionGreta Thunberg released from custody after arrest at UK pro-Palestinian protest
Thunberg was arrested under the Terrorism Act for supporting Palestine Action prisoners on hunger strike, highlighting tensions over UK government’s designation of the group as terrorist.
- On Tuesday in London, Greta Thunberg was detained by City of London Police during a pro‑Palestinian protest and released from custody later the same day.
- Campaigners said Aspen Insurance was targeted because it served Elbit Systems UK, aiming to show solidarity with prisoners on hunger strike linked to Palestine Action.
- Using repurposed fire extinguishers, activists doused the Aspen building with red paint and glued themselves nearby, prompting specialist police officers; police said hammers and paint caused damage at 7am on Tuesday and two people were arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.
- Police said the detention was made under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000 for Thunberg displaying a placard supporting a proscribed organisation, prompting Richard Burgon to call it `totally ridiculous`.
- Over the past year, campaigners say thousands were arrested for `I support Palestine Action` placards, and last year a UK court acquitted Greta Thunberg, ruling police lacked authority to arrest her.
