Fans of the Irish-language hip-hop group Kneecap have mobbed sidewalks outside a London court as a member of the trio faced a terror-related charge in what he says is a politically motivated effort to silence the band’s support for Palestinians before its appearance at the Glastonbury Festival.

Kneecap's Mo Chara was released on bail at his first court appearance in London on a terror charge tied to his alleged display of a Hezbollah flag.

Kneecap ’s Mo Chara appeared at Westminster’s Magistrates Court on Wednesday (June 18) in relation to an alleged terror offense.
