Activists from Palestine Action have broken in to Teledyne Technologies’ plant in Presteigne, Wales.
Climbing in through smashed windows, activists began to thoroughly dismantle the factory of the American-owned firm, forcing closure of a site reportedly used to supply military hardware to Israel.
Activists have taken apart offices, broken computers, and have begun occupation of the roof to ensure that the factory remains inoperable.
The group took over the Teledyne factory at 7.30am this morning, and vow to continue this action for as long as possible to stop the manufacture or shipment of Israel’s drone technologies and military gear.
A spokesperson for Dyfed Powys Police said:
“A large number of police are currently at an industrial site in Presteigne where there is an ongoing protest.
“Damage has been caused to a building, and there are people on the roof. Officers are working to bring them down safely.
“Two people have been arrested.”
