A group named online as Palestinian Martyrs appear to have broken into the Moog Aircraft Group factory in Pendeford, Wolverhampton at 3:50am on Tuesday.

Dramatic footage shows a black four-wheel drive car smashing through two white barriers, before the activists set off red flares and climb a ladder onto the roof of a building.

The manufacturer was targeted because it builds parts for the F-35 fighter jets which the UK sells to Israel via a global pool, the group claimed. F-35 fighter jets have been used in Israel’s destructive bombing campaign in Gaza for nearly two years.

    when soldiers hide, fight and store weapons there yes

    There’s a saying: two war crimes don’t make a right.

      particularly when one of them is not a war crime

      when soldiers victimize their own people by using them as shields they make them a valid target

      in this case tho i think the appropriate word is martyr
