Elbit facility in Bristol ‘unexpectedly’ closes, UK media reports
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIsrael’s largest weapons manufacturer has “unexpectedly” closed its facility in Bristol, the United Kingdom, the Guardian reports.
The site was leased by the company since 2019 and was only set to expire in 2029, but was deserted — aside from the presence of a security guard — when the British newspaper visited this week.
Elbit did not respond to the newspaper’s request for comment.
The company was targeted by dozens of protests by the anti-Israel Palestine Action group, which was proscribed as a terror group by the UK government in July.
