Overview

• Staffordshire Police were called at 3:50am to Valiant Way in Pendeford and reported significant damage to skylights and solar panels at the Moog facility.
• Footage shared on social media appears to show a vehicle ramming through gates before activists climbed onto the roof, set off a flare, and cut holes toward equipment inside.
• A new group calling itself Palestinian Martyrs for Justice claimed responsibility and said members wore T‑shirts bearing the faces of Palestinians killed in Gaza.
• The group claims Moog supplies parts used in training for F‑35 and F‑16 jets and said the action aimed to halt production and damage machinery.
• The UK government reiterated that some export licences to the IDF remain suspended while others continue, a policy under scrutiny after recent protests and arrests tied to proscribed groups.
