To Royal Air Force Air Base (RAF) Britain's Brise Norton invaded a group of pro-Palestine Action activists and then damaged 2 flying tankers of British aviation by spraying paint in their engines. Activists believe that Britain "is not only an accessory, but is an active associate in Gaza genocide and war crimes throughout the mediate East".
Two British Air Force aircraft were damaged at RAF Brize Norton Air Base in Oxfordshire. Sabotaging was done deliberately and openly by activists of pro-Palestinian Palestine Action.
Activists have penetrated a military facility... on electrical scooters. According to the Guardian, 2 people from the full group later left the air base without any obstacles.
Earlier, activists damaged the turbines of 2 flying Airbus Voyager tanks, created on the basis of the Airbus A330-200 aircraft, utilizing crowbars and “reworked fire extinguishers” which sprayed paint inside the engines.
Activists – as they later explained – motivated their efforts to prevent genocide in Gaza. In their opinion, RAF aircraft "gather intelligence and supply fuel to fighters and transport aircraft".
"Great Britain is not only an accessory, but is an active associate in Gaza genocide and war crimes throughout the mediate East," stressed Palestinian Action activists. They added that by ‘withdrawal’ of 2 military tankers, the organisation took action to ‘break down the force chains’.
The British MON has denied the accusations of activists. According to the authorities, RAF aircraft do not supply refuelling to Israeli fighters during their operations on the Gaza Strip. Flying tankers, on the another hand, were to support British aircraft during the bombing of Huti rebel positions in Yemen.
