London CNN —Six people were arrested Sunday over a suspected plot to disrupt the London Stock Exchange (LSE) when the market opened for trade Monday, London’s Metropolitan Police has said. It was alleged that activists from the Palestine Action group intended to target the exchange on Monday morning to cause damage and prevent it from “opening for trading,” according to a statement from the police force. The LSE hasn’t had a physical trading floor since 1986, with all equities trading taking place electronically. Palestine Action is a British-based activist group that aims to disrupt the operations of weapons manufacturers supplying the Israeli government. Having only been provided with the material on Friday afternoon, we had limited time to act.”The London Stock Exchange declined to comment on the matter.

London police on Sunday arrested six pro-Palestine activists for alleged plans to lock themselves to the doors of the London Stock Exchange to attempt to disrupt trading amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. The six Palestine Action protestors, all in their 20s or early 30s, planned to stage a week of protests, starting Monday morning. The activists intended to start their week of protests on Monday morning by chaining their necks to the doors of the London Stock Exchange to prevent anyone from entering, according to the Express' report published Sunday. They also planned to spray fire extinguishers and shoot fake bank notes painted red out of "money guns" around the stock exchange, according to the Express report.
