Palestine Action has continued its direct action campaign against PHS, the company which deals with the toxic waste of Israel’s biggest weapons maker, Elbit Systems, with actions against sites in Ashford and Hayes.
PHS: complicit with Elbit, complicit with genocide
On Tuesday 11 February, the company’s site at Kingsnorth Industrial Estate in Ashford was hit:
Then, on Wednesday 12 February the PHS site at Pump Lane Industrial Estate in Hayes was the target:
In the actions, buildings and vehicles were covered in blood-red paint, with windows broken, and vehicles put out of commission:
While Palestine Action’s primary targets for direct action are the arms manufacturers such as Elbit which build weapons to kill Palestinian civilians, the group is also taking action against the companies who assist them in doing so.
This includes PHS, who take away Elbit’s toxic waste. Palestine Action have already targeted numerous PHS sites in a similar manner. The group did so last December:

It says these actions will not stop until the company drops Elbit.
A Palestine Action spokesperson said:
Drones made by Elbit Systems, in Britain, have been at the forefront of the Genocide in Gaza, and continue to be used to attack Palestinians in the West Bank. They are a toxic company, being aided and abetted by companies like PHS, who are complicit in the slaughter.
PHS may think that, like Elbit, they can make a killing from the wholesale murder of the Palestinian people, but so long as they are involved, Palestine Action will target them.
