Four members of Palestine Action were arrested after a protest at an Elbit Systems UK building near Bristol. The individuals, aged 19 to 36, are currently in custody. The protest aimed to damage the defense firm's operational hub. Videos shared by the group show members in a cherry picker and one person locked inside a van. This incident is separate from a previous protest in August, which resulted in 18 arrests at a different Elbit facility. Elbit Systems UK has been contacted for a response.
