Report: The hearing continues of six Palestine Action defendants on criminal damage re their break-in at Elbit Systems near Bristol.
The judge urged jurors to ignore the "legal battle over Palestine Action's ban as a terrorist organisation [&] to ignore any protesters outside court."

Reportedly, the jury is not told, & UK press is banned from reporting, that defendants could be sentenced as "terrorists".
