Palestine Action activists guilty of criminal damage

Charlotte Head, 30, Samuel Corner, 23, Leona Kamio, 30, and Fatema Rajwani, 21, broke into an Elbit Systems factory near Bristol in August 2024 before destroying property and clashing with security guards and police.

Zoe Rogers, 22, and Jordan Devlin, 31, were acquitted of the same charge by a jury at Woolwich Crown Court earlier.

The court previously heard that the group, dressed in red jumpsuits, used a decommissioned prison van to crash into security shutters at the Elbit site, armed with tools.

"They used crowbars and hammers to damage computers, equipment, drones and other products Elbit had manufactured," she said.
