VIDEO: Palestine Action activists sabotage UK military aircrafts in protest over Gaza operations
Two military aircraft at RAF Brize Norton, the UK's largest airbase, have been put out of service after being targeted by members of Palestine Action in a direct action aimed at disrupting British involvement in military operations in Gaza and across the region. According to a statement from the activist group, two individuals breached the high-security facility using electric scooters to quickly reach two Airbus Voyager aircraft. Once on site, they sprayed red paint, symbolizing Palestinian blood, into the aircrafts' turbine engines using modified fire extinguishers and caused further damage to the planes with crowbars. Additional paint was sprayed across the runway, and a Palestinian flag was left behind. The activists reportedly left the scene undetected and have not been apprehended. RAF Brize Norton plays a central role in Britain's global military logistics, including daily flights to RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus. Akrotiri is widely reported to serve as a launch point for UK and allied military operations in the Middle East, including support missions for 'Israeli' operations in Gaza. In recent months, Akrotiri has reportedly facilitated hundreds of hours of reconnaissance flights over Gaza. Activists also allege that the base serves as a hub for transferring US and UK military cargo to 'Israel'. The aircraft, Airbus Voyager jets, are capable of refueling British, American, and Israeli fighter jets mid-air and transporting military cargo. The same type of aircraft has previously supported bombing missions in Yemen. In addition, Airbus Atlas transport aircraft, also based at Brize Norton, have reportedly been used to move soldiers and military hardware from Akrotiri to Tel Aviv during the current conflict. Palestine Action points to these logistics as evidence of what it calls Britain's 'active participation' in military actions across the region. A spokesperson for the group said, 'Despite publicly condemning the Israeli government, Britain continues to send military cargo, fly spy planes over Gaza and refuel US/Israeli fighter jets. Britain isn't just complicit, it's an active participant in the Gaza genocide and war crimes across the Middle East."

Israel-Iran air war enters second week as missile attacks continue
Ammon News - Iran said on Friday it would not discuss the future of its nuclear programme while under attack by Israel, as Europe sought to draw Tehran back into negotiations and the United States considers whether to get involved in the conflict. Israel began attacking Iran last Friday, saying it wanted to prevent its longtime enemy from developing nuclear weapons. Iran, which says its nuclear programme is only for peaceful purposes, retaliated with missile and drone strikes on Israel. The White House said on Thursday that President Donald Trump would decide on U.S. action in the next two weeks. Israeli air attacks have killed 639 people in Iran, the Human Rights Activists News Agency said, with those killed including the military's top echelon and nuclear scientists. Israel has said at least two dozen Israeli civilians have died in Iranian missile attacks. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said there was no room for negotiations with Israel's superpower ally the United States, which he called a partner in crime, "until Israeli aggression stops".
