Join us on Thursday 23 July 2026 for a national protest outside Elbit Systems research, development and manufacturing facility in Bristol.
Assemble at 11am at Elbit Systems, 38 Bolingbroke Way, Bristol, BS34 6FE.
Elbit Systems is Israel’s largest weapons company. It manufacturers weapons and military technology used by Israel in its ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip, and military assaults and ethnic cleansing across the West Bank. This includes armed drones, missiles, bombs and artillery shells.
Elbit Systems is enabling and profiting from Israel’s atrocities against Palestinians, yet the British government allows it to operate factories and research facilities in this country, and grants it licenses to export weapons components to Israel.
Palestinians call on people in Britain to protest against arms companies that enable and profit from Israel’s crimes, and to demand that the government impose a comprehensive arms embargo on Israel, in line with its legal obligations not to aid or assist genocide, military occupation and apartheid.
Join us on Thursday 23 July in Bristol to demand that Elbit Systems and the British government stop arming Israel!
