Britain jails Palestine Action activists over Gaza genocide
Four British activists supporting the Palestinian cause have been sentenced to more than 20 years in prison after being convicted of charges related to their involvement in an attempted raid on an Israeli factory operated by Elbit Systems in Bristol in 2024, which specializes in military technology. They faced charges of property damage related to terrorism, despite denying any use of violence against people, with their stated aim being to stop the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. One of them was sentenced to 7 years and 8 months in prison; they were previously acquitted of robbery charges. The incident resulted in damage to military equipment and information technology, with the insurance payout for damages reaching £1.2 million.
