Activists from the group Palestine Action have occupied the London office of Italian weapons firm Leonardo.
Pro-Palestinian protesters have doused a weapons company's central London offices in red paint, with one demonstrator refusing to come down from the building's canopy.
Activists from the Palestine Action spray painted messages like "Free Gaza" and "Free Palestine" across Leonardo's site at Eagle Place, Piccadilly. One man was recorded up on the canopy releasing red flare smoke into the air as he condemned Leonardo for supplying the Israeli government with weapons and said the UK government is "complicit in genocide".Credit: Palestine Action
