At 6am on 25 November, three anti-arms trade campaigners locked themselves to the gates of the EDO MBM arms factory in Brighton. Banners were hung on the fence saying: ‘Stop the arms trade. Solidarity with Kurdistan’ and ‘No bombs, no borders’.
There were no arrests.
Earlier in the month, on 6 November, Brighton Against the Arms Trade held a demonstration outside the arms factory with about 100 activists banging drums and chanting ‘break the kill chain’.
They were protesting against the use of EDO MBM components in airstrikes by the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen.
