In a remarkable development that has raised serious security concerns, a leading Palestine Action activist has been found to be coordinating ongoing protests against RAF bases from within the confines of her prison cell.
From Prison Cell to Protest Coordination
Huda Ammori, 31, currently serving a 12-month sentence at HMP Eastwood Park for conspiracy to cause criminal damage, has maintained active involvement in directing demonstrations targeting Royal Air Force facilities across the country. The activist, who helped establish the radical Palestine Action group, was convicted for her role in planning attacks on an Israeli-owned arms factory.
Security Breach Concerns
Prison authorities have confirmed they are investigating how Ammori has managed to continue her activist work while incarcerated. Sources indicate she has been using permitted communication channels to maintain contact with protest organisers and coordinate actions against RAF bases believed to be housing Israeli-made drones.
The situation has prompted serious questions about security protocols within the prison system, particularly regarding activists who remain committed to their causes while serving sentences.
Background of Activism
Ammori's conviction stemmed from her involvement in targeting UAV Tactical Systems in Leicester, a joint venture between Israeli defence giant Elbit Systems and French company Thales. Palestine Action has gained notoriety for its direct action tactics, including:
- Factory occupations and blockades
- Property damage to defence company facilities
- Red paint attacks on buildings associated with Israeli defence contracts
- Regular protests outside RAF bases
Ongoing Investigations
Ministry of Justice officials have acknowledged they are reviewing the case to determine how Ammori has been able to continue coordinating protests. A spokesperson stated: "We do not comment on individual prisoners, but we have robust measures in place to monitor and restrict communications where necessary to protect public safety."
The revelation comes amid increased scrutiny of protest groups and their methods, particularly those targeting defence installations and foreign-owned facilities in the UK.
