Watch live from outside Woolwich Crown Court as four Palestine Action activists face sentencing over the August 2024 raid on an Elbit Systems UK factory near Bristol.
Charlotte Head, Samuel Corner, Leona Kamio and Fatema Rajwani were convicted of criminal damage after equipment, including drones and computers, was destroyed during the raid, causing an estimated £1 million in damage.
Corner was also convicted of grievous bodily harm after a police officer was struck with a sledgehammer.
The judge is also expected to determine whether the offences had a “terrorist connection”, despite the defendants not being convicted of terrorism offences.
Demonstrators and supporters are expected to gather outside the court during the sentencing hearing.
