The BBC's London headquarters was vandalized with red paint thrown on it, ahead of a major pro-Palestinian march expected to draw 50,000 protesters. The motive was unclear, but BBC has faced criticism for not labeling Hamas a terrorist group after its deadly attack on Israel. Journalists shared images of the paint-covered entrance, which was blocked off. The vandalism comes as widespread protests are planned across the UK in solidarity with Palestinians, demanding Israel end occupation amid heightened Israel-Gaza tensions. Thousands are expected to march in London from Portland Place to Whitehall. The rally highlights growing outrage against Israel's actions in Gaza and the West Bank
