MORE than 100 Palestine supporters have laid siege to an arms company providing Israel with weapons being used to attack Gaza.

Israeli-owned Elbit Systems supplies Israel with 85 per cent of the military drones being used to attack Gaza and 85 per cent of the Israeli Defence Force’s land-based military equipment.

The weapons are produced at four Elbit factories in Britain. The company also has its headquarters offices in Bristol.
