The Metropolitan Police has increased patrols in central London before planned demonstrations this Saturday. These gatherings address the Middle East conflict involving America, Israel, and Iran. Two main events, 'Stage for Freedom' and 'Hands off Iran,' are scheduled to conclude by 5pm. Conditions, including noise restrictions, apply to one march to prevent serious disruption.
