Britain is leasing spy planes from US-based Straight Flight Leasing Company, subsidiary of US weapons company, Sierra Nevada Corporation. These spy planes are flying over Gaza likely every day to collect real-time intelligence for Israel. On 27th July, the flight path of the spy plane was revealed for the first time. The next day, Israel bombed the very area that was on the flight path.
Britain is conducting intelligence operations in order to give Israel information to target its genocidal attacks. These planes are based and launched from RAF Akrotiri, a British colonial military base on Cyprus which is just 40 minutes from Gaza. Britain is not only complicit in genocide through weapons sales and diplomatic support, but it is an active participant in providing, what the IOF have themselves said, intelligence that "Israel cannot collect on its own".
Join us to protest at Sierra Nevada to pressure the leasing company to stop providing spy planes for genocide.
As we protest at the London HQ of Sierra Nevada, CODEPINK Reno will be protesting at the HQ of Straight Flight and Sierra Nevada Corporation in Sparks, Nevada.
Bring flags, banners, and pink!
