Elbit Systems have a weapons factory, also in Bristol, which was the site of a break-in by direct action activists who found quadcopter drones used to drop grenades on people in Gaza. The activists were imprisoned without trial.
Direct action like that in the video risks huge personal sacrifice.

It’s called being “held on remand” when they think someone is so dangerous that they have to be in prison until their trial. If that person gets found not guilty they occasionally get a “whoops, sorry” but I wouldn’t bet on it

Because it isn’t true.

The facts of the case are being deliberately obscured to further agendas rather than promoting the truth.

To be clear, they broke into a factory and attacked someone with a hammer that they took with them for that purpose.
Then they publicly stated that they would do it again as soon as they got the chance. It’s that later statement which is why they had to be kept behind bars.
They had the option to apologise, say things got out of control and agree to bail conditions but they refused to do that so they are in prison by their own choice.
It would be negligent of the justice system to do nothing and release them to find another victim. They have since been tried and found guilty.
