"A banner advertising an #artshow in #London about #Hamas’s #Oct7, 2023, massacres was taken down at the request of police but installed anew on Monday, an organizer of the show said.

#LindaSason, a spokesperson for the organizers of the #NovaExhibition this month, said the banner was back on display following consultation with the #MetropolitanPolice, which had requested the banner be taken down, citing #security concerns. “Following our request, #police allowed the banner to be hung up again,” she told JNS on Monday.

A police spokesperson told JNS the force was formulating a statement on the issue, which provoked anger and dismay online, and allegations that police had tried to appease anti-#Israel activists intent on intimidating #Jews.

#Sason added that “at this stage, the location of the exhibition is being kept secret, and has not yet been officially communicated to the broad public” in the media."
