Original Note:
This was an Elbit Systems facility; there was no substantive fire, just a smoke device. Elbit is multibillion dollar int'l defense contractor that produces military drones/UAVs, spyware, small arms, and more. Protesters have targeted Elbit facilities prior to this war: https://www.hrw.org/news/2017/12/06/cyberbit-solutions-response-human-rights-watch https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/3-arrested-following-pro-palestine-protest-at-elbit-systems-in-nh/3197073/ https://www.jpost.com/bds-threat/hsbc-tells-post-we-divested-from-elbit-over-clusters-bombs-not-bds-576175 https://caat.org.uk/news/stop-elbit-kent-activists-rooftop-occupation-of-an-israeli-drone-factory/
