Six pro-Palestinian activists arrested for plot to disrupt London Stock Exchange
[IsraelTimes] British police arrest six people who are members of the Palestine Action protest group as part of an investigation into an alleged plot to disrupt the London Stock Exchange.

The police allege the activists had planned to target the LSE tomorrow morning, in an attempt to prevent the building from opening for trading.

In a statement, London’s Metropolitan Police says three people were arrested in the northern English city of Liverpool, two in London, and one in the south coast city of Brighton.

“These are significant arrests. We believe this group was ready to carry out a disruptive and damaging stunt which could have had serious implications had it been carried out successfully,” says Detective Superintendent Sian Thomas.

The police says all six activists remain in custody.
