This is the best summary I could come up with:


Amid a moment of silence for Israel on Sunday during the National Football League's (NFL) game with the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans in London, "Free Palestine" chants were heard.

Since the attack, both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian groups across the world have taken to social media and to in-person protests to voice their thoughts about the conflict, provoking strong reactions from each side.

This is not the first moment of silence held by the NFL for those killed in Israel as one took place on Thursday for the Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs game.

As previously reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter, "NFL teams will hold a moment of silence before each game this week for victims who have been killed in the Hamas attack on Israel."

The interruption, calling attention to the Free Palestine movement, comes after thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters have taken to the streets across the United Kingdom on Saturday, including in London and Manchester.

In addition to the NFL speaking out amid the conflict, over a dozen teams have released their own statements, including the Chiefs, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles.
