Eight others were charged after the security firm was hacked

Eight other people have been charged for allegedly breaking into an Israeli-based security company’s premises in the UK as part of a Palestinian protest.

Elbit Systems UK, near Patchway, Bristol, was allegedly attacked by members of Palestine Action in the early hours of August 6, the Old Bailey previously heard.

The Crown Prosecution Service said it would refer the alleged terrorism-related charges to the court when the defendants appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court at a later date.

Israel-based Elbit Systems is a global defense contractor. Elbit Systems UK is run separately and previously told the BBC that the facilities supplying the Israeli military were “absolutely bogus”.

Six people have been charged with aggravated burglary, criminal damage and violent disorder:

  • Sean Middlebrough, 32, of Woodlee Road, Liverpool

  • Aleksandra Herbich, 40, of Warfield Road, London

  • Huba Muraisi, 30, of Bedford Avenue, London

  • Qesser Zuhrah, 19, of Llandover Road, London

  • Zahra Farooque, 24, of Delorme Street, London

  • Kamran Ahmed, 27, of Langdon Crescent, London

Tutea Hoxa, 28, from Beckenham, south-east London, and Julija Brigadirova, 32, from Manchester, have been charged with burglary and criminal damage.

The previous case was told that the car was rammed into the doors of the buildings and two police officers who were responding and a security guard were injured.

Ten others appeared in court and will be tried in 2025 for the same incident, including one that injured a police sergeant.
