'YOUR BOMBS KILL CHILDREN': Protesters Surround NATO Factory, Demand Israel Arms Supplies End

Hundreds of protesters gathered outside Elbit Systems’ UAV Engines facility in Shenstone, Staffordshire, demanding an end to arms supplies to Israel. The demonstration, supported by Campaign Against Arms Trade, saw protesters carry placards accusing the Israeli military of killing children and use blood-stained shroud props to highlight civilian deaths in Gaza. Demonstrator Lotika said campaigners were not outsiders but members of the local community who wanted the factory’s military production to end. The protest puts fresh pressure on the UK-based facility and raises questions over Britain’s role in supplying defence equipment linked to Israel. Protesters are demanding action, while the controversy continues to intensify.

‘Plan To Meet Vance, Mamdani’: Why MEA Denied Permission For Telangana CM Revanth Reddy’s US Trip?

Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s proposed US visit was denied clearance by the Ministry of External Affairs, while his UK trip was approved. According to sources, the Centre found the proposed US itinerary inappropriate because it included meetings with US Vice-President JD Vance, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani and one of US President Donald Trump’s sons. The official itinerary had not publicly mentioned these meetings, but sources said they were included in the programme shared with the MEA. The Centre reportedly viewed the meetings as political activity, while the stated purpose of the visit was to promote Telangana’s Rising Telangana initiative. Telangana BJP demanded an explanation from Reddy. Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka criticised the decision, saying the visit focused on education and investment. Revanth is currently in the UK.
