Pro-Palestine protesters spray red paint over Ministry of Defence building

Pro-Palestine protesters have sprayed red paint over the Ministry of Defence headquarters in London.
The groups Youth Demand and Palestine Action jointly carried out the action on Wednesday demanding that both the Conservative and Labour parties commit to imposing a two-way arms embargo on Israel.
In a video posted to X, formerly Twitter, several demonstrators can be seen spraying the red paint over the walls of the building before displaying a banner reading “Youth demand an end to genocide”.
They wrote: “We will never tolerate people causing criminal damage to buildings under the guise of protest.”
“We will not die quietly whilst our leaders commit us to a future of suffering and mass death. Young people are coming together to fight back.”
On Monday, the group sprayed Labour’s headquarters with red paint and on Tuesday held a demonstration outside Labour Leader Sir Keir Starmer’s home.
