Israel's national airline, El Al, have today announced that, following an international campaign, they are ending the transport of primates, or any other animal, which are to be used in vivisection.

This is an amazing victory and not to be underestimated. Not only were El Al flying primates into Heathrow Airport in the UK, but the sole company responsible for transporting monkeys for the Mazor Farm, which gains 90% of its business exporting animals to the UK, USA and Germany.

El Al were the primary target for our Gateway to Hell Campaign, so we will now be focusing our efforts on those involved in Manchester Airport.

Many thanks to everybody globally who got involved in protests, sending emails to the airline and especially the Free the Mazor Monkeys campaign in Israel who headed actions against El Al at their Head Office.
