Hundreds of students from UK’s Luton Sixth Form College have staged a walkout in solidarity with Palestinians killed in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.
“At exactly 11am on a Saturday in mid-November, hundreds of students from Luton Sixth Form College streamed out of their school, gathering outside in a sea of black, white, and red keffiyehs and Palestinian flags,” the report said.
It said the students carried banners and placards saying “Bombing kids is not self-defence” and “This is no ‘conflict’ it’s genocide”, referring to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
“Student organisers of the rally read out speeches against the conflict,” the report added.
