Bristol Live said, "The protesters carried Palestinian flags and banners denouncing Israel's atrocities, and delivered speeches demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. They accused the company of contributing to civilian casualties, destroying Gaza's health care infrastructure, and complicity in committing war crimes in Gaza."
