We need help to identify these people suspected of committing hate crimes and other offences since the terrorist attack on Israel.

 There are more than 977 ongoing investigations across the Met into a wide range of offences linked to protests and incidents in communities.

 Our specialist teams continue to gather and review evidence to identify those responsible for criminal behaviour and locate them.

 Our policing response to each protest is complex and the work doesn’t stop when the event finishes.

 Today, we are launching a single webpage which captures all live appeals in one place. There are currently more than 60 unnamed individuals.

 In addition, we are launching a new appeal following incidents at the weekend.

 We need to identify two men after a journalist and her colleagues were harassed in Stanhope Gate, close to Park Lane, shortly after 1pm on Saturday.

 The first suspect is a man in his 30’s, with a long black beard, wearing a blue Adidas jacket, black cargo trousers with a white scarf with red and green patterns and a black bandana. The second suspect is a man in is 50s, with balding, greying brown hair. He is wearing blue jeans, black leather jacket, black jumper and carrying a megaphone.

 A total of 434 people have been arrested for offences including hate crimes and public order offences over the past seven weeks. 

 Chief Supt Paul Trevers said: “We know the effect of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East continues to have a significant impact on communities in London and we will do all we can to keep people safe. 

 ”Our officers continue to meet regularly with members of the Jewish and Muslim communities across capital to provide reassurance and to respond to any concerns they may have.

 ”We have also been clear that offences, such as hate crime and support for proscribed organisations, will not be tolerated and we continue to have a dedicated policing operation to investigate these crimes and identify offenders.”  

  Of the 434 arrests, 288 were made in connection with offences at protests, 133 were following offences in communities and 13 relate to counter terrorism offences. 

 A total of 85 people have been charged.

 Anyone who recognises any of the people below is asked to call 0208 246 9386. Alternatively, they can call 101 quoting Operation Brocks and the relevant image identification number.

All the pictures of the people police would like to identify are in the press releases attached to this one.

 Information can also be shared anonymously with independent charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111 or via their website.
