In 2026, six British activists were acquitted of aggravated burglary charges stemming from a 2024 raid on a factory operated by Elbit, an Israeli defence firm. The activists, who were members of the now-banned organization Palestine Action, had targeted the factory. The incident and subsequent trial took place in Britain. The activists' motivations were linked to their opposition to Elbit's activities as a defence firm. The acquittal marks the conclusion of the legal proceedings related to the factory raid.
