Anti-Israel activists interrupted a live television broadcast from London with chants calling for the destruction of the Jewish state as Channel 10 correspondent Miri Michaeli attempted to report on a conference late last week.
While Michaeli updated viewers on a speech from Israeli opposition leader Isaac Herzog at the London School of Economics (LSE) on Friday, two protesters stood up close alongside her holding up large Palestinian flags and aggressively chanting “free free Palestine” and “from the river to the sea Palestine will be free.”
An LSE student who uploaded footage of the incident on Facebook applauded the journalist for standing her ground.

“So following Isaac Herzog’s excellent speech at LSE, this poor but admittedly tough news anchor from Channel 10 withstood disgraceful intimidation from two men surrounding her without even flinching,” the student wrote. “Israeli women are not to be messed with. Respect.”
On Friday, Michaeli shared the raw footage on her own Facebook page commenting, “I’m tough!”
The incident was not the first time Michaeli has experienced hostility as an Israeli reporting from the streets of Europe. In April, she faced antisemitic abuse from a group of men as she prepared to broadcast a report from outside the Gare du Nord train station in Paris.
“My hands are shaking three weeks later when I remember the things they said,” Michaeli recalled in a Facebook post about the incident. “I was standing in the street not bothering anyone, and I got vigorously cursed (along with aggressive hand motions) — and threatened.”
