A Manchester road has been shut down by police after protesters climbed onto a lorry, sparking a dramatic scene at an industrial park. The incident, which occurred on Greeba Road in Wythenshawe, has caused significant disruption to local bus services. Two protesters are perched atop a lorry splattered with red paint, with emergency services on the scene and a police cordon in place. The Bee Network has confirmed the closure is due to an 'ongoing non-transport related incident'. The protest is believed to be led by the Greater Manchester Friends of Palestine group, and the road closure has impacted several bus services, including the 245, 247, 248, 249, 263, 281, 282, 283, 284, 285, 286, 313, 370, and 371. This incident has sparked debate, with some questioning the methods of the protesters and others expressing support for their cause. The road remains closed, and updates will be provided as they become available. This is a developing story, and further details will be added to our live blog.
