LONDON — Pro-Palestinian activists from the group Palestine Action claimed responsibility for damaging two RAF Voyager aircraft at Brize Norton airbase in Oxfordshire.
The activists reportedly broke into the base, sprayed red paint on the planes, and used crowbars to cause further damage. The group accused the UK of aiding Israel’s military actions by allowing its aircraft to support US and Israeli operations in Gaza.
A video of the incident was shared online. The Ministry of Defence and local police have not yet responded.
Palestine Action has previously targeted UK defence companies over alleged ties to Israel.
