Smash EDO Demo - 'Remember Gaza' - photos

Josh Jones | 18.01.2010 19:57 | Smash EDO | Anti-militarism | Palestine | South Coast

Brighton hosted over 500 protesters calling for the closure of the EDO/ITT weapons factory, which manufactures bomb parts used against the people of Gaza last year.

Police attempt to protect the weapons factory

Mounted cops struggle to follow the protest in skirmishes outside the factory

In Brighton, protesters resist all attempts to control the demonstration

Police used force to try and dispel the protest and demonstrators were kettled and subject to baton charges. Clashes outside the factory led to several minor injuries, and at least five arrests were made, including one medic.
