Another huge Pro-Palestine march to block officonic Australian bridge this weekend - as police issue a warning to protesters
Police are vowing to arrest or charge pro-Palestine protesters if they unlawfully block traffic on a major city bridge after a magistrate denied legal protection for a proposed march. Chief Magistrate Janelle Brassington ruled that Sunday's planned march by up to 10,000 people across Brisbane 's Story Bridge would be declared an unauthorised protest. 'I'm satisfied (Queensland Police Service) has established there is a real and significant risk to persons in this case given the proposed route,' she said on Thursday. Ms Brassington said the planned protest was not unlawful but participants would not have protection against being criminally charged for actions such as obstructing traffic. Rally organiser Remah Naji said outside court that participants would still gather at the march's planned starting point in a nearby park. 'The plan is still to go ahead with a peaceful assembly ... we are considering our options at this stage,' she said. Acting Assistant Commissioner Rhys Wildman said police would act to protect the safety of the community and maintain access for emergency vehicles to the major arterial road crossing the Story Bridge. 'We have to make it quite clear that anyone participating in a protest which is not authorised faces the prospect of enforcement action being taken against them, whether that's on the day or post-event,' he said. 'There are a range of offences that are open to investigators to utilise, and we will have a significant policing presence this weekend to manage whatever response the protest organisers wish to take.' Mr Wildman urged Justice for Palestine to stay in contact with the police major events unit. Justice for Palestine Magan-djin proposed the rally as part of Sunday's nationwide day of action that has been billed as the largest pro-Palestine demonstration in Australia's history. Organisers were still considering a court appeal to authorise the march, Ms Naji said. It comes after tens of thousands of protesters marched on the Sydney Harbour Bridge in the days before Anthony Albanese revealed Australia would recognise a state of Palestine. Authorities believed around 90,000 people arrived at the Harbour Bridge on Sunday afternoon, after authorities went back and forth with organisers about what would be permitted in the weeks leading up to it. Joshua Lees of the Palestine Action Group believed the true attendance was three times greater than police's estimate. 'Absolutely incredible day today… we think we had up to 300,000 people,' he said shortly after the event. After hearing emotionally-charged speeches, protesters began marching towards the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Hundreds of Palestinian flags waved above thousands of attendees as they crossed the bridge shoulder-to-shoulder. 'Confusing' police messages did not lead to any incidents as attendees were warned to double back on the march and return to the CBD. Police later said the march could have quickly become 'perilous'. 'I can honestly say in my 35 years of policing, that was a perilous situation,' Acting Assistant Commissioner Adam Johnson said. 'That was a very intense situation. We had more people than I'd ever seen in a small confined space. 'We were overwhelmed by the sheer number of people. We had to make a risky call to halt the crowd with messaging, ensure they stopped, and then redirect them back – and I want to thank everyone for heeding that advice.'

Lil Nas X arrested and hospitalized after altercation with police
Lil Nas X has been arrested after an altercation with police, according to reports. Officials confirmed to NBC that the 26-year-old rapper and singer was booked on suspicion of misdemeanour battery after he was confronted while walking down the street in his underwear. The two-time Grammy winner, whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill, had been seen on Ventura Boulevard in the early hours of Thursday morning. TMZ has video footage where he claims he is going to a party. After officers arrived, he allegedly threw punches toward the officers and, according to an LAPD statement provided without naming him, the suspect was then 'taken to a nearby hospital to be treated for a 'possible overdose''. Once he is released he will be charged. No officers were injured. Lil Nas X gained fame after his track Old Town Road became a record-breaking No 1 hit, staying there for 19 weeks. He also had success with songs including Industry Baby and Montero (Call Me by Your Name). He is set to release his album Dreamboy later this year after releasing a number of singles this spring, and in the last week, returned to social media with a series of posts featuring snippets of new music. He also changed his Instagram name to Queen Madeleine and shared images of himself in a variety of costumes with the furniture in his apartment being rearranged. In April, he was hospitalised after experiencing sudden facial paralysis. In a video shared to Instagram, he said he 'lost control' of half his face. The Guardian has reached out to his representatives for comment.
