What is the Cenotaph in the UK?

The Cenotaph in Whitehall stands as a silent sentinel in the heart of London, solemnly honoring those who laid down their lives in the Great War and subsequent conflicts. During the Armistice weekend in Nov. 2023, a pro-Palestinian march was rerouted to avoid this iconic memorial, which, after a political tango involving the Prime Minister and the Metropolitan Police, agreed to a route that respected the sanctity of the remembrance events.
