Overview

• The October 11 demonstration in central London, organised by the Palestine Coalition, drew tens of thousands of participants.
• The filmed protester led the crowd in chanting, “Gaza, Gaza, make us proud, put the Zios in the ground,” after saying the words had been workshopped in Oxford.
• The Metropolitan Police confirmed an investigation into chants at the event and said enquiries are ongoing.
• Oxford University condemned language urging violence or racial hatred and said it will speak to the student concerned under its disciplinary processes.
• The Union of Jewish Students called the rhetoric unacceptable and urged universities to act decisively, as the video continued to circulate widely on social media.
