ACTIVISTS BREAK IN & DESTROY BRITISH ARMS FACTORY LINKED TO ISRAEL
June 18, 2024
Pro-Palestinian activists have broken into a UK-based Israeli-owned arms manufacturer, which provides weapon parts for the Israeli military amid its ongoing genocidal war against the Gaza Strip.
It took place by members of Palestine Action, a UK-wide network of activists that focuses on “direct action” to try to disrupt and shut down arms makers that are headquartered in the country and contribute to the Israeli regime’s deadly aggression against Palestinians.
The activists cut their way through three security fences at Instro Precision, a factory located in Kent in southeastern UK, which makes “weapons sight and target acquisition products” for the Israeli military. Specializing in military-grade electro-optical equipment, Instro is a major exporter to the Israeli regime and its products are likely to be used in ground operations in Gaza, Palestine Action says.
During their operation, the activists smashed a glass door and stormed the factory, where they began destroying equipment.
Kent Online, a news outlet, cited the group as saying that it was “dismantling technology, machinery, and parts used to produce weapons of war in a bid to prevent the export of arms to Gaza.”
“Some [activists] also laid stinger spike strips at the roads leading to the factory to prevent any vehicles from entering,” the outlet reported.
Disrupt. Resist. Protest.
We MUST pressure them into our demands.
