High Drama At London Event: New Video Shows Gaza Flag Being Pulled, But Artist Refuses To Yield

A chorus performer at London’s Royal Opera House held up a Palestinian flag during the final curtain call of Verdi’s Il Trovatore, triggering a brief onstage scuffle and drawing widespread attention online. While the act was silent and non-disruptive, the opera company swiftly condemned it as unauthorized and inappropriate. The incident comes amid rising pro-Palestinian expressions in the UK arts scene, including high-profile cases at Glastonbury involving controversial political statements and ongoing police investigations.#RoyalOperaHouse #IlTrovatore #PalestineFlag #LondonOperaProtest #FreePalestine #ProtestOnStage #PalestineSolidarity #OperaControversy #UKArtsProtest #GazaVoices
