Young Palestinian visitors to Northampton have marched along Abington Street blindfolded and handcuffed, to highlight the treatment of children in the occupied Palestinian territories.
The demonstration on Saturday also featured street art and a free public concert at the central library, attended by the mayor of Northampton, Les Marriott.
The young Palestinians are taking part in a summer camp and concert tour organised by CADFA, a London twinning association, and the Northampton event was organised by Northampton Al-Bireh (Palestine) Friendship Association.
Julia Bush, from the Northampton Al-Bireh (Palestine) Friendship Association, said: “The youngsters delighted a packed audience with their skills as singers, dancers and instrumentalists - as well as their excellent English.”
