London, 13th August 2025. The London Freelance Branch of the National Union of Journalists called an emergency vigil at Downing Street, following Israel’s targeted assassination of 7 Al Jazeera journalists in Gaza. Names of all the journalists that have been killed in Gaza were read out, which was followed by a prayer in the muslim tradition. People then silently marched to Palestine House in Holborn, where a candlelit vigil was held in honour of all the journalists that have been slain in their attempt to tell Gaza’s story.
