Family members of Israeli hostages march in London, pressuring UK to prioritize releases over Palestinian state recognition.

Family members of Israeli hostages held by Hamas will march on Downing Street to urge the UK Prime Minister to prioritize the release of the remaining 50 hostages, with 20 believed to be alive, before recognizing a Palestinian state. The march, organized by Stop the Hate UK and various Jewish organizations, follows Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer's pledge to recognize a Palestinian state unless Israel meets certain conditions to end the Gaza conflict. Demonstrators will gather in Holborn and march to Downing Street for speeches.
