Headline: Banner Drop In Support of Imprisoned Palestine Actionists in Leicester

Caption:

A pro-Palestinian activist stands on top of Watergate Lane bridge with a Palestinian flag and one fist raised in defiance after suspending a banner saying 'Free Palestine Action Political Prisoners'

The action is in response to the State's treatment of Palestine Action activists that were arrested under the Terrorism Act and held for nearly seven days without charge following a direct action at an Elbit Systems facility in Filton, Bristol.

They were eventually charged and following an appearance at Westminster Magistrates Court, seven actionists were remanded to prison. (Credit Image: © Martin Pope/ZUMA Press Wire)
