Pro-Palestine protesters deface two aircraft in RAF base break-in
The Guardian
|June 21, 2025
A pro-Palestine protest group has said two of its members broke into the RAF's Brize Norton airbase and defaced two military aircraft with spray paint before escaping the site without being detained.
Palestine Action released a short video yesterday showing two people driving electric scooters unimpeded in the airbase at night, in an embarrassing breach of Ministry of Defence (MoD) security at a site where transport planes used by the king and prime minister can be parked.
The group said it had targeted RAF Voyager aircraft used for transport and refuelling and "activists have interrupted Britain's direct participation in the commission of genocide and war crimes across the Middle East".
The MoD condemned the protest and described it as "vandalism of Royal Air Force assets". It is working closely with police investigating the incident, a spokesperson added.
Brize Norton in Oxfordshire is the largest airbase in the UK, employing more than 6,000 people, and is home to the UK's refuelling fleet. One of the Voyager aircraft, now repainted with a British flag on its tailfin, is used to fly the king and the prime minister on official engagements.
