Pro-Palestinian Activists Smash Up Factory Producing F-35 Parts
3rd January 2026
Pro-Palestinian activists attacked machinery and spray-painted slogans at a Scottish aerospace factory, footage shared online has shown.
Protesters smashed their way into the Bruntons Aero Products site, on an industrial estate outside Edinburgh, shortly after midnight on New Year’s Day.
The firm appeared to have been targeted because it supplies specialist parts for defence companies Leonardo and BAE Systems, both of which have been heavily criticised for their alleged links to Israel.
