Youth Demand, a splinter group from Just Stop Oil, gained attention after police arrested members, prompting increased interest in their planned protests against Israel's actions in Gaza. The group's spokesperson emphasized the urgency felt by young activists concerning the situation in Gaza, advocating for a dedicated campaign to address these concerns. The Independent underscores the importance of ground reporting to present a comprehensive view of the protests, highlighting the need for quality journalism accessible to everyone without paywalls.
As a result of the publicity following the arrests, the group says hundreds of young people have expressed interest in joining the protests to highlight Israel's actions in Gaza.
A significant portion of young people in the movement were deeply concerned about the scale of the crimes being undertaken against the population of Gaza by Israel, and felt in order to begin to deal with the crisis effectively, it needed its own campaign.
