A pro-Palestinian group has targeted an RAF base and damaged two military aircraft in what the Ministry of Defence (MoD) branded an act of “vandalism”.
Palestine Action posted on X to say it had broken into RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.
In a video shared online, a person can be seen approaching an aircraft on a scooter as music is played. Red paint can be seen on the ground.
The MoD said: “We strongly condemn this vandalism of Royal Air Force assets. We are working closely with the police who are investigating.
“Our Armed Forces represent the very best of Britain. They put their lives on the line for us, and their display of duty, dedication and selfless personal sacrifice are an inspiration to us all. It is our responsibility to support those who defend us.”
