A new mural by artist Banksy was removed from the Royal Courts of Justice in London just two days after it appeared. The artwork showed a judge striking a protester with a gavel, as the protester held a blood-stained placard. The mural was seen as a comment on Britain’s ban on the activist group Palestine Action. The government labeled the group a “terrorist organisation” in July, sparking mass arrests and criticism from rights groups. Amnesty International called the move “a disturbing legal overreach.” Critics say the ban silences pro-Palestinian voices and restricts peaceful protest in the UK. (PC: Al Jazeera)
