demonstrators take to the streets including Islamic extremist group that wants Muslim countries to invade Israel<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Last Saturday tens of thousands of people protested in streets across the UK\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Police officers across London are gearing up for another day of pro-Palestinian protests on Saturday as an &#8216;extremist&#8217; Islamic group prepare to take to the streets alongside thousands of peaceful demonstrators.<\/p>\n<p>Around 1,000 Met Police officers are on duty to monitor events in the capital after a similar event last week saw tens of thousands turn out in solidarity with Palestinians trapped in the Gaza strip.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside a similar march this week, controversial Islamic group\u00a0Hizb ut-Tahrir \u2013 which means &#8216;Party of Liberation&#8217; and first emerged in Britain in the 1980s \u2013 will hold their own march and protest outside the Egyptian and Turkish embassies.<\/p>\n<p>Advertising for the planned march shows members of the group are demanding that &#8216;the armies of Muslim countries move to free Palestine&#8217;, adding it &#8216;it the only way to rescue the Muslims under attack&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Hizb ut-Tahrir is banned in more than 40 countries and both Tony Blair and David Cameron considered banning the group during their premierships, but were reportedly advised by police chiefs that it could become more radical if forced underground.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

in riot gear patrolling the streets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Large metal and concrete barriers were placed in front of the entrance to the embassy, with officers seen stacking riot shields inside the gates.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It follows a largely peaceful series of marches in cities across the UK last weekend, although isolated incidents including young women with images of paragliders attached to their backs and a woman in Glasgow yelling &#8216;remember where the Jews were in 1940&#8217; sparked outrage in the days that followed.<\/p>\n<p>Thousands of demonstrators are expected to turn out in London again today in solidarity with Palestinians amid ongoing rocket strikes by Israel.<\/p>\n<p>At least 3,800 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip since terror group Hamas, which controls the region, launched a horrific attack against Israel earlier this month, killing more than 1,400 people and taking a further 200 hostage.<\/p>\n<p>The vast majority of those killed in the attack, which was launched via the ground and air through the use of paragliders, were civilians.<\/p>\n<p>Hamas have been accused of massacring entire villages and murdered 250 people at a music festival during their attack on October 7.<\/p>\n<p>At least nine Britons were killed with a further seven missing in the assault which saw entire families, including babies and the elderly, shot dead and mutilated.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/21\/12\/76833869-12656341-image-m-7_1697888346738.jpg\"
