TWO Palestine Action activists were arrested after occupying the Aviva building in Bristol today, demanding the company stop insuring an Israeli-owned drone engine factory.

The group said Aviva provides mandatory employers’ liability insurance for UAV Engines in Staffordshire, which is owned by Israel’s biggest weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems.

One activist climbed the overhang of the building from 7.30am, while the other spray-painted “Pal Action” and “Elbit out” on the the building’s glass facade.
