Demonstrators gathered Saturday near an Elbit Systems facility in Shinstone, Staffordshire, calling for closure of the Israeli weapons manufacturer's factory, Shehab Wire reported. The crowd assembled outside the company's installation to demand an end to arms production at the site. Elbit Systems is one of Israel's largest defense contractors.
A separate protest occurred simultaneously in New York as part of coordinated action against weapons manufacturing linked to Israeli military operations. The demonstrations reflected growing activism in both countries targeting companies involved in supplying equipment used in military activities.
