Activists sprayed the entrance red, in protest against the killing of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. 

TWO activists blockaded an Israeli arms firm’s London HQ today to protest against the killing of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. 

Members of Palestine Action locked themselves to the entrance of 77 Kingsway in Holborn, where Elbit Systems UK has its main office. 

Activists, who also sprayed the building in red paint, said the action prevented staff entering and leaving. One activist was arrested in the morning, the group said.
