Palestine Action has engaged in another protest, targeting facilities in Suffolk and Bristol.

The group targeted the Guardtech Group’s facility in Haverhill as well as the Elbit Systems subsidiary Aztec West.

Activists blockaded the Bristol site's only entrance, dousing in in red paint to symbolise "Palestinian bloodshed."

It comes as the group is seeking a legal challenge against the Government’s bid to proscribe the group under anti-terror laws.

A Palestine Action spokesman said: "While the government is rushing through Parliament absurd legislation to proscribe Palestine Action, the real terrorism is being committed in Gaza.

"These daily atrocities are ones in which Elbit Systems is an active participant, as are those like Guardtech whom facilitate Elbit's business of genocide.

"Palestine Action affirms that direct action is necessary in the face of Israel’s ongoing crimes against humanity of genocide, apartheid, and occupation, and to end British facilitation of those crimes."

GB News has approached Avon and Somerset Police and Suffolk Police for a comment.

A draft order was laid before Parliament on Monday to amend the Terrorism Act 2000 to include PalestineAction as a proscribed organisation, making membership and support for the direct action group illegal.

If approved, it would become a criminal offence punishable by up to 14 years in prison.

An urgent hearing was held in the High Court on Monday related to an application for judicial review on behalf of one of the founders of the group, Huda Ammori.

A further hearing will be held on Friday to decide whether the Government can temporarily be blocked from banning the group, pending a hearing to decide whether Palestine Action can bring the legal challenge.
