Yesterday five of the seven EDO decommissioners, on trial in Brighton for damaging the EDO arms factory during last year's attack on Gaza by Israel, were found not guilty. The other two verdicts are expected tomorrow (Friday). The court isn't sitting today.
The defendants successfully argued in court that they were acting to prevent war crimes by Israel against the people of Gaza.
