The Met Police have published a number of wanted posters for pro-Palestine campaigners after several incidents took place during protests this month.
Officers have issued images of those they want to speak to following demonstrations across London.
It comes after thousands of protesters took to the streets after the Israel-Hamas war broke out last month.
A total of 12 people have been identified by police for possible offences ranging from using discriminatory language and causing an affray, at protests held on October 14 and 28.

A Met Police spokesperson said thousands of officers were present during the events, which were “largely peaceful”.
Commander Colin Wingrove said: “We will take a zero-tolerance approach to any behaviour which crosses the lines into criminality.
“We know that many people in London are feeling vulnerable following the terrorist attacks on Israel and subsequent conflict with Hamas.
“It is completely unacceptable that a minority of people have used peaceful protest to foster hate and division.

“We know that others will be appalled as well and we ask for their help to identify these individuals and report other suspected hate crimes.”
More than 100,000 people took to the streets of London in mass protests to declare their support for Palestine, amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
Other major rallies were held in Cardiff, Glasgow, Belfast and Birmingham.
In a tweet, the Met Police said: "We need your help. We want to speak to the following people regarding incidents that took place during protests this month.

Some acts during protests have been criticised, as groups were heard shouting anti-Semitic chants, and one tube driver has been suspended by TfL after using the train’s tannoy to encourage carriages full of pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
