Pro-Palestine protesters break into UK air base and damage two military planes

The Ministry of Defence "strongly condemn" this act of vandalism

According to GB News, two military planes were damaged in the nocturnal demonstration, while those responsible escaped undetected.

"Despite publicly condemning the Israeli Government, Britain continues to send military cargo, fly spy planes over Gaza and refuel US/Israeli fighter jets," said a spokesperson for Palestine Action.

"Britain isn't just complicit, it's an active participant in the Gaza genocide and war crimes across the Middle East. By decommissioning two military planes, Palestine Action have directly intervened to break the chains of oppression."

RAF Brize Norton is the biggest station in the Royal Air Force, and in a video made by the two protestors in question, they can be seen entering on electric scooters before spraying-painting the crafts' engines red and leaving a Palestinian flag at the scene.

Palestine Action claims these activists "interrupted Britain's direct participation in the commission of genocide and war crimes across the Middle East."

A spokesperson for the Ministry of Defence responded in a statement: "We strongly condemn this vandalism of Royal Air Force assets. We are working closely with the police, who are investigating.

"Our Armed Forces represent the very best of Britain. They put their lives on the line for us, and their display of duty, dedication and selfless personal sacrifice are an inspiration to us all. It is our responsibility to support those who defend us."

"There are also serious questions for the MoD to answer about how 'protesters' - who might even have turned out to be armed terrorists - were able to gain access to what is supposed to be a secure RAF airbase."
