  • Protesters demonstrate outside court with flags and a banner during the demonstration on the first day of the Ferranti 2 trial at Manchester Crown Court. Supporters of the "Ferranti 2" gathered outside Manchester Crown Court as the trial began. The two defendants are charged with criminal damage and aggravated trespass for occupying the roof of Elbit Systems' Ferranti factory in Oldham in 2021, effectively shutting it down during their protest. This action was part of a broader campaign by Palestine Action and the local community to close the Israeli-owned weapons manufacturer, which succeeded when Elbit Systems permanently shut the facility in January 2022. The defendants dubbed as the "Ferranti 2," have awaited trial for over three years.Protesters demonstrate outside court with flags and a banner during the demonstration on the first day of the Ferranti 2 trial at Manchester Crown Court.
