British direct action group
Palestine Action, also called Pal Action, is a British direct action network founded in 2020 with the stated goal of "ending global participation in Israel's genocidal and apartheid regime". The organisation has been active in protests against the Gaza war in the United Kingdom, and many of its most high-profile actions such as the "Filton 24" case have been in response to the Gaza genocide. From the group's founding, the Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems has been its primary target.
