Six British members of the proscribed Palestine Action group are on trial for allegedly damaging property at Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems in Bristol. Prosecutors claim the defendants planned the attack in August 2024, causing injury to a police officer and extensive property damage. During the trial, Judge Jeremy Johnson emphasized that the jury should disregard personal feelings about the Gaza conflict and focus solely on the evidence presented. The trial is expected to last 10 weeks, with some activists on hunger strike protesting treatment in custody.
