Gaza protest paint stunt disrupts London Marathon

Two protesters from the group Youth Demand jumped into the path of the men’s elite race and threw red powder paint across the road, calling for a trade embargo on Israel.

The incident occurred around 10.35am yesterday, with the activists jumping barriers before scattering the paint. Images shared by the group showed the pair standing on the road wearing T-shirts emblazoned with “Youth Demand: Stop Arming Israel”. City of London police swiftly arrested the individuals.
