Protesters blockade BAE Systems in Glasgow

The video covers a protest in Glasgow against BAE Systems, the UK's largest weapons manufacturer, for producing parts used in the F35 fighter jet by Israel. The protestors demand a UK arms embargo, following Belgium and Spain's lead, to stop the genocide in Palestine. They emphasize the moral obligation and urgency for action, aiming to disrupt BAE's operations. Despite previous efforts like demonstrations and writing to MPs, they feel compelled to take direct action due to the ongoing violence in Palestine.
