Moog

A U.S. arms firm has launched legal action against pro-Palestine activists in Britain, it can be revealed. Court documents show Moog, which makes military aircraft parts and has links to Israel’s arms trade, applied for an injunction in September to prevent protests at its U.K. sites. The application, which was granted by the High Court, sought to stop “persons unknown” who “for the purpose of protest enter occupy or remain on” the firm’s facilities across Britain. Moog returned to court earlier this month and obtained a wider injunction to cover interference with “access to or egress from that land and premises.” This means protesters are barred from blocking traffic around entrances and exits and face risk of arrest on public land adjacent to the company’s sites.
