  • Four people have been charged by counter-terrorism police following an incident at RAF Brize Norton.
  • Amy Gardiner-Gibson, Jony Cink, Daniel Jeronymides-Norie, and Lewie Chiaramello are scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates Court on Thursday.
  • The charges stem from an incident on 20 June where two Voyager aircraft were damaged, resulting in £7 million in losses, in an action claimed by the group Palestine Action.
  • The accused face charges of conspiracy to enter a prohibited place for a purpose prejudicial to the safety of the United Kingdom and conspiracy to commit criminal damage.
  • In a related development, MPs have voted to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation, with the motion now awaiting a vote in the House of Lords.
