Nearly 800 Christians joined an Israel solidarity event opposite the houses of Parliament this week. People from across Britain turned out to the event, which was organised by Mordecai Voice.

Derbyshire pastor Tim Gutmann, who organised the rally, said: "I believe that a huge voice of love and support for Israel is now boldly rising from the UK church, and with all our hearts want Israel and the Jewish people to know at this crucial time that they are not alone and we will not be silent."
