The Metropolitan Police have arrested 117 people on suspicion of showing support for the proscribed organisation Palestine Action.
It follows a protest outside the Royal Courts of Justice today.
Judges ruled that the ban on Palestine Action as a terror group was lawful.
Soon after the Court of Appeal's ruling, the Metropolitan Police confirmed that arrests were "underway" and reiterated that support for the group is a criminal offence.
Outside London's High Court, a gaggle of protesters brandished pro-Palestine Action placards, a number of whom have now been detained by officers.
Some of those supporting the proscribed organisation yelled "shame" and "you're complicit" at police officers.
They held signs reading "I support Palestine Action."
A Met Police spokesman said: “We acknowledge the Court of Appeal’s judgment that the Home Secretary’s decision to proscribe Palestine Action was lawful."
They added: "This means that expressing support for the organisation remains a criminal offence and officers will arrest those who break the law.
"Officers policing a protest outside the Royal Courts of Justice today, Monday, June 15, arrested 117 people on suspicion of expressing support for a proscribed organisation.
"A further two people were arrested by colleagues in the City of London Police at a protest outside the Old Bailey.
"Since the organisation was proscribed, the Met has arrested over 3,000 people on suspicion of expressing support for Palestine Action."
