CROWDS have gathered in the city centre to show solidarity with Palestine following days of hostility in Gaza. About 100 people have joined a rally at the Clock Tower in Brighton to protest against the violence, after clashes between Israeli troops and Palestinians spread across much of the occupied West Bank in recent days. Photos show protesters with flags and placards which read "Leave the East in Peace" and "Peace, Justice, Freedom for Palestine". Police officers are also seen standing by as speeches are heard on a loud speaker, with the crowd chanting "Free Palestine". The Brighton and Hove Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) said the rally is part of a global day of action to mark Nakba Day.
