Protests related to the Israel-Hamas conflict will take place in Barcelona, Spain, and London, UK, between June 29 and July 3. Details are as follows

In Barcelona, Spain, a pro-Israel demonstration will take place at Placa de Sant Jaume at 17:30 (local time) on June 29.

Also in Barcelona, a pro-Palestinian protest will take place at Placa Portal de la Pau at 19:00 on June 30.

In London, UK, Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) has called for a protest outside Wimbledon Stadium at 10:00 on June 30.
The action has been called for against a tournament sponsor with alleged financial ties to Israel.

Also in London, a pro-Palestinian protest is slated to take place at the Tower of London at 08:00 on July 3.
The protest is being called in protest of the London Collective Investment Vehicle’s investment of over 7 billion GBP in companies linked to Israeli defense companies.

Based on precedent and the mobilizational capabilities of the organizers, the above protests are likely to garner turnouts ranging from the low to mid hundreds.
In addition to the planned protests, spontaneous protests and demonstrations related to conflict are likely to occur regionwide in the coming days, amid heightened tensions over continued Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip. Further, protests are especially likely to manifest in the UK, given calls by Palestine Action to denounce the government’s plan to ban the groups. Such protests are likely to take place near central government buildings, main squares, and Israeli and US diplomatic missions. Additionally, the risk for pro-Palestinian protesters engaging in vandalism targeting entities perceived as pro-Israel remains elevated, particularly by activists associated with Palestine Action.
Based on precedent, any planned or spontaneous demonstration related to the Israel-Hamas conflict carries a heightened potential for unrest in the form of clashes between protesters and police.
Given this, a reinforced security presence is expected near protest locations to monitor proceedings. In the case of escalating unrest, police are liable to use forcible dispersal methods, conducting arrests or using tear gas.
Significant disruptions to pedestrian and vehicular movement, including road closures and traffic diversions, should be anticipated near the protest locations.

Those operating or residing in Barcelona and London between June 29 and July 3 are advised to maintain heightened vigilance near protests related to the Israel-Hamas conflict due to the elevated potential for unrest.
Allot for travel-related disruptions in the vicinity of the protest locations.
