Ten arrests made at Palestine Action protest in Norwich
Police say placards in support of the banned group were on display
Ten arrests have been made at a protest in Norwich, after police say placards were shown in support of Palestine Action.
The group was banned by the government in July.
A Norfolk Police spokesperson said:
"Officers were on scene from 12.30pm this afternoon (Saturday 29 November 2025) when a group of people assembled on Haymarket, Norwich.
"They held placards showing support for proscribed terrorist group, Palestine Action.
"These people were all arrested on suspicion of displaying an item in support of a proscribed organisation, contrary to Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000. All of those arrested have been taken to Wymondham Police Investigation Centre for questioning, where they remain.
"The incident was resolved at around 3pm."
Superintendent Terry Lordan from Norfolk Police said:
“As we have seen throughout the summer, officers will always work to protect the democratic right to assembly and facilitate peaceful protest.
“Our role as a police force is to prevent disorder, damage and disruption in the local community. Today, this involved arresting individuals who were committing offences under the Terrorism Act. The actions of this group were unlawful and officers have used their powers accordingly.”
