Pro-Palestine activists filmed themselves breaking into the Israeli firm Elbit's "highly secured" weapons factory in the UK and smashing up their property in protest of their support for the Gaza genocide.

"Actionists cut through 3 security fences to get inside Elbit's 'highly secure' compound and break into Kent's Israeli weapons factory," Palestine Action said Monday on Twitter. "Once inside, they begun dismantling machinery, technology and parts used to arm the Gaza genocide."

"The Israeli Ministry of Defense ordered approximately $760 million in ammunition in a series of contracts throughout 2023 with the Israeli defense giant Elbit Systems, according to a company statement," Breaking Defense reported in March.

Activists also vandalized multiple banks in the UK and Europe for helping fund Elbit Systems.
