Passengers en-route to a pro-Palestinian march joined in chanting.

British Transport Police (BTP) and TfL said they were urgently investigating The Incident .

On Saturday, to show solidarity with Palestinian civilians.

In the video being investigated, The Driver can be heard saying " hope you all have a pleasant day today" and " keep all Those People in your prayers".

It Comes as The First aid deliveries have reached Gaza since Israel imposed a blockade after a Hamas attack on 7 October killed 1,400 people in Israel.

Israel cut off supplies of fuel, electricity and water to Gaza after The Attack . Palestinian officials say More Than 4,000 people have died in Gaza since then.

The UN says about 1. 4 million Gazans have been displaced with More Than half A Million people in 147 UN shelters.
