Anti-war protesters chained themselves to a Brighton factory which manufactures components used in bomber planes this morning.
The EDO MDM factory in Home Farm Road has been targeted by demonstrators for many years.
But protests have stepped up again this year after United Nations Security Council report into war crimes in Yemen found evidence that manufacturer has provided parts for bombs targeted at civilians in Yemen.
A Sussex Police spokesman said: “Police attended the premises of EDO-MBM Technology, Home Farm Road, Moulsecoomb, Brighton, at 5am on Monday (November 25) where ten demonstrators had gathered.
“Some were reported to have chained themselves to gates.
“Officers engaged with them, while maintaining access to the premises for employees.
“Those who had locked themselves to the gates released themselves and all had left the site by 10.55am.”
