Palestine protestors in Kent blocked an Elbit Systems factory, clashing with police over Gaza.
On 23 January 2026, a group of Pro‑Palestine protestors gathered in Kent, England, to block the Elbit Systems weapons factory. They chanted slogans such as “globalise the intifada” and accused the UK‑based manufacturer of aiding Israeli defence operations in Gaza. Tensions escalated when police moved in to clear the site, leading to a clash that left several protestors and officers with minor injuries.
