In a powerful display of unity, 65 student groups have rallied in unwavering support of Palestine Action activists, who have bravely taken a stand against Elbit Systems, "Israel’s" largest weapons manufacturer, known for supplying arms used against Palestinians amid the ongoing genocide.

The student groups declared that an attack on Palestine Action activists is an "attack on all of us". Collectively, they rejected any attempts to silence or suppress Palestine Action, whether through legal or political pressure or unjust imprisonment. They called on students, institutions, and allies to stand in solidarity with Palestine Action and amplify their call for justice. "Together, we are all Palestine Action," the statement affirmed.

UK advocacy groups stand in solidarity with Palestine Action

10 NGOs in the UK expressed their support on Tuesday for Palestine Action.

In a joint statement, the NGOs, which include Black Lives Matter UK, Just Stop Oil, CAGE International, and Free Political Prisoners, acknowledged Palestine Action's efforts, stating that their actions have reportedly caused Elbit Systems financial losses amounting to tens of millions of British pounds over the past year.

They emphasized that "every action disrupting the supply chain of weapons used in the ongoing genocide in Gaza is morally justifiable and deserving of support. Direct action has never been more necessary."

The statement further highlighted that as the Israeli genocide against Palestinians has intensified, so too have Palestine Action’s protests, which have been met with "frequent attacks from the Zionist lobby."

The NGOs noted that documents have revealed how Elbit Systems and the Israeli government have pressured UK authorities—including the police, CPS (Crown Prosecution Service), the Attorney General’s office, and government ministers—to clamp down on the group, with demands even made to have it banned.

The statement also pointed out that Palestine Action currently has 16 political detainees in the UK, 11 of whom have yet to face trial, and that activists have been subjected to frequent dawn raids, police harassment, airport stops, and smear campaigns.

Despite these challenges, the NGOs praised Palestine Action's resilience, stating, "Palestine Action continues to risk their freedom for the liberation of Palestine; We stand in full solidarity with Palestine Action and urge all people of conscience to show their support."
