Yesterday, activists from Palestine Action blockaded the Bristol HQ of Israel’s largest weapons firm, Elbit Systems.
Activists from Palestine Action drenched the Manchester offices of Bank of New York Mellon in red paint to symbolise the bank’s complicity in Palestinian bloodshed.
Windows were shattered, and the site was covered in red paint, symbolising the bloodshed of the Palestinian people.
This victory comes after an extensive direct action campaign.
Yesterday morning, Palestine Action covered Twickenham Stadium in blood red paint, hours before the Defence IQ’s ‘International Armoured Vehicles’ expo.
Palestine Action, supported by the Bristol-based group ‘Rise Up for Palestine’, have shut down the Israeli-owned Elbit weapons Headquarters in Bristol.
Overnight actions by Palestine Action have targeted the logistics companies servicing the operations of Israel’s arms trade in Britain.
The group has pledged that ‘business-as-usual’ will continue to be disrupted until those targeted end their ties to the brutal colonisation of Palestine.
The arrests came after a Daily Express journalist’, Max Parry, went undercover in the group to report on activities and hand information on alleged plans to the police.
