This is the chilling moment a woman casually lifts her hand up to her face to amplify her voice and seemingly calls out 'We love Hamas', while taking part in a pro-Palestinian protest through London on Saturday.
The disturbing footage was captured on camera as thousands took to the streets of the capital calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and an end to Israel's attacks on Lebanon.
Organised by the Palestinian Solidarity Group, their protest came just days before the first anniversary marking one year since Hamas terrorists invaded Israel and killed more than 1,200 people, while taking another 250 hostage, on October 7, 2023.
The young woman, wearing a keffiyeh, casually walks past counter protesters while holding up a banner with the words 'Hands off Lebanon', in reference to Israel's current military action against Hezbollah fighters.

The disturbing footage was captured on camera as thousands took to the streets of the capital calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and an end to Israel's attacks on Lebanon.
Advocacy group Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) described the woman's open support for a proscribed organisation as 'depraved', adding that results of a new poll published this week show such behaviour is becoming 'normalised'.
Since the October 7 attack last year, Israel has responded by waging a war against first Hamas militants in Gaza, where the fighting has killed more than 41,000 people and displaced around 1.9 million, and in more recent weeks in Lebanon, while facing escalating threats from Yemen's Houthi rebels.
Israel is also contending with a mounting conflict with Iran, which backs Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis.
The attack, on a major Jewish holiday, shattered Israelis' sense of security and left the world facing the prospect of a major conflict in the Middle East.
A spokesperson for Campaign Against Antisemitism (CAA) described the woman's open support for a proscribed organisation in the UK as 'depraved' and said results of a new poll published this week show that such behaviour is becoming 'normalised'.
In a statement, CAA said: 'To mark one year since Hamas invaded Israel and murdered 1,200 victims and took some 250 hostage, a lot of people in London chose to demonstrate against Israel.
'In case that isn't depraved enough, this woman appears to shout 'we love Hamas'.
'Our polling released this week shows how Britons are becoming radicalised and that she is not alone in her support for Hamas terrorists.
'In no small part because of the failures of the police to act against these protests, we are now at a point where anti-Israel demonstrators apparently feel free enough to yell support for proscribed terrorist organisations with impunity.
