Police arrest two at Birmingham anti-Zionist event amid social media probe
Two people were arrested in Birmingham as police probed an Anti-Zionist Movement launch event. A 35-year-old woman was stopped en route and arrested on suspicion of inciting racial hatred, and a 42-year-old man was detained after a threat reported outside the venue. Officers are examining organisers’ plans and a social-media post advertising the event and liaising with the local Jewish community as the investigation continues.
