Shut Elbit Down – Stop Arming Israel!
Tuesday 27th February @ 11:00 - 13:00
Palestine Action has been taking direct action to shut down Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest weapons company, in Britain and the US. The firm has abandoned its office at 77 Kingsway, leaving Elbit’s London Headquarters permanently closed. The campaign aims to bring Elbit’s facilitation of war crimes to light, to restate the call to end UK complicity in these atrocities, and to shut Elbit’s headquarters down.
UAV Engines Ltd (UEL) is an Elbit subsidiary located in Shenstone, in the Midlands. It designs and makes engines for drones. The company states that it makes the “engines for various size tactical UAVs, target drones and single mission platforms.” Three out of five of UEL’s directors are Israeli. UEL was the first Elbit factory in Britain to be targeted by Palestine solidarity activists, and has been shut down by protesters dozens of times.
Veggies will be bringing #FoodbyVeggies by donation to this important demo.
