"Some 45,000 people took part in the 'Salute to Israel' parade in Britain on Sunday, celebrating Israel's 60th anniversary.

The parade, an annual staple in New York, was brought to the UK through the collaborative efforts of the Zionist Federation and the Israeli Embassy in London.

The parade set off from Piccadilly and ended in Trafalgar Square, with floats, decorated vehicles and a band escorting participants through London's streets."
