The Foreign Office building in London was targeted Thursday by activists who wrote “Britain is guilty” on it in blood-red paint on the 106th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration.
“Actionists spray the Foreign Office in London, 106 years after Britain signed away the land of Palestine to the zionist colonial project,” the Palestine Action wrote on X.
The group also accused the UK of continuing to arm “Israel’s ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.”
Thursday marks the anniversary of the Balfour Declaration in which the British government, in the now-famous Balfour Declaration, called for “the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.”
The Israeli army expanded air and ground attacks this week on the Gaza Strip, which has been under relentless airstrikes since a cross-border attack by Hamas on Oct. 7.
Nearly 10,600 people have been killed in the conflict, including 9,061 Palestinians and more than 1,538 Israelis.
Basic supplies are running low for the 2.3 million residents in Gaza due to the Israeli siege, in addition to the large number of casualties and displacements.
