ARMS FACTORY IN
SHENSTONE TARGETED
DAYS AFTER FORCING
ELBIT OUT OF OLDHAM</h1>
<p style="text-align:

</p>
<p style="text-align:

align="center"><span
style="font-size:
16px;">Palestine
Action breached
security and gained
entry to the heavily
guarded Israeli arms
factory in
Shenstone. The site,
used for the
manufacture of
engines and
components for
Elbit's murderous
drones,was broken
into at 11:00 this
morning, with the
two women evading an
extensive security
presence. Aiming to
disrupt operations
at the site, the
activists have
covered the factory
in painted slogans
including 'Shut
Elbit Down', 'Free
Palestine', 'First
Oldham, Next
Shenstone'. One
activist was
arrested on the
site.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0;"><br>
</p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center"><span
style="font-size:
16px;">The site has
been targetted as
part of an ongoing
campaign of direct
action against Elbit
Systems, which is
Israel's largest
private arms
manufacturer, and
which has produced
85% of the drones in
Israel's drone
fleet. The UAV
Engines factory is
crucial for Elbit's
manufacturing of
drones. The site
produces the engines
and components for
Elbit's </span>Hermes<span
style="font-size:
16px;"> drone
- which has been
used extensively to
surveil, repress,
bomb and murder
Palestinians in
Gaza. The drone has
been linked directly
to extrajudicial
assassinations by
Israel, as well as
the murder of 4
children playing on
a beach in Gaza in
2014. It also
produces for
Elbit's </span>Watchkeeper<span
style="font-size:
16px;"> drones,
which are sold to
the British military
and border forces to
surveil migrants and
conduct imperialist
military
interventions
abroad.</span></p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center"><br>
</p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center">The
action comes on the
heels of a major
victory in the fight
to end British
complicity in Israeli
war crimes, with news
breaking this week
that Elbit have
permanently closed
their Oldham factory
and have sold their
Ferranti Technologies
business. This comes
after months of action
by Palestine Action,
with activists
regularly scaling,
occupying, blockading,
dismantling the
factory, each time
covering premises in
blood-red paint to
signify the bloodshed
facilitated with Elbit
weapons.</p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center"><br>
</p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center">Prior
to being shut down,
the Oldham factory
manufactured
surveillance and
targetting systems for
Elbit drones, and is
the first of Elbit's
10 (now 9) sites in
Britain to have been
shut permanently.<span

center; margin: 0;"
align="center"><br>
</p>
<p style="text-align:
center; margin: 0;"
align="center"><span
style="font-weight:
bold;">Palestine
Action will continue
to undermine,
disrupt, and shut
down Elbit's British
sites until they
cease to operate on
the streets of
Britain, and all the
remaining sites are
closed.</span></p>
