Kira to Represent Elbit Defendants in Court This Thursday

This Thursday, June 6, CDP staff attorney Kira Kelley will appear in court to represent seven people arrested while protesting at an Elbit Systems weapons manufacturing facility in Merrimack, New Hampshire. The arrests occurred after a campaign formed this spring to end the indiscriminate killing of Palestinian civilians by the Israel government and to cast a spotlight on the role of manufacturers who profit from the sale of weapons to Israel. Other protests against Elbit Systems have occurred in Massachusetts and the United Kingdom. More information about the cases can be found here:
