This thread has now been seen more than 200,000 times. Thank you Craig Mackinlay MP for your public devotion to this arms company helping to boost awareness of its murderous activities again yesterday.
The massacres Israel is carrying out this week are made possible by factories in Britain making weapons parts - including one company based at the Discovery Park industrial estate in Sandwich, east Kent. Instro Precision is a subsidiary of Elbit, Israel's biggest arms co.

@AyoCaesar Thanks for highlighting this, Ash. It's an old website, but this contains lots of still relevant information about Instro, the Elbit subsidiary targeted by today's protest: https://t.co/2Ir6Xximdr

This detailed thread from @CAATek forensically investigates Instro Precision ~ the @ElbitSystemsLtd owned company currently shut down by @Pal_action

Worth noting that Craig Mackinlay never clarified whether he was tricked by the company into making false public statements about Instro's activities, or whether he knowingly and complicitly was helping Instro's cover-up. Which was it, Craig? See https://t.co/kFYGBXU5T8
Usual protestors disrupting a respected @DiscoveryPark_ business. Hope Instro/ @ElbitSystemsLtd use full opportunity to take civil action against them for criminal damage & business interruption. The stench of #Antisemitism hangs in the air when you look who’s behind the protest.

However, after activists highlighted this fact, the company retrospectively erased all mentions of UAVs from its site. This coincided with a factory visit by Craig Mackinlay MP, who then misled the public by claiming Instro had nothing to do with drones.

It looks like it's the outside gates of Discovery Park that have been blocked, which means if any local people want to go and express their support, that should be possible. It's on Ramsgate Rd, a little north of Sandwich town.
Just learned of this blockade of the Instro-Elbit site at Discovery Park in Sandwich, happening now. Thanks to these protesters, hopefully no weapons will be made at Discovery Park today.
@CAATek Have a poster in my window in Sandwich . Some woman found it so offensive she banged on my door and had a go at me ! We have touched a nerve here !
@lucienlelong David, thanks so much for visibly showing support. For each door-banger hopefully there are 50 people who will learn about what's being made at Discovery Park. You're a star, thank you!
Dozens turned out for today's rally in Sandwich town centre and vigil at nearby Discovery Park, which hosts arms company and Israel's weapons supplier Instro Precision. *Pics by Cara MacNally #EvictInstro#ShutElbitDown
A round of airstrikes - mostly confirmed by drones- some reported fighter jets- Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun in north gaza, gaza city, and khanYounis in the south. #breaking#GazaUnderAttack
Someone who used to work for a company at @DiscoveryPark_ tells us they would get emails from DP warning when there were protesters on site, but the emails never said what they were protesting *about*. Ashamed to admit they host a weapons factory that arms tyrants?
On 12 June local people read out the names of the almost 300 people killed by Israel's May massacre of Palestinian people. The vigil was on the steps of Discovery Park in Sandwich, Kent, which hosts Israel's arms supplier Instro Precision. Now tell Discovery Park to #EvictInstro.
