Bodycam footage of alleged sledgehammer attack on police shown at Palestine Action trial

Police bodycam footage allegedly shows a Palestine Action activist attacking police with a sledgehammer during a break-in at an Israel-based defence firm's UK site, a court has heard.

Prosecutors say six members of the group wearing red boiler suits used a prison van to gain entry to an Elbit Systems UK factory in Bristol during a "meticulously organised" attack in the early hours of 6 August last year.

All of the defendants deny the charges - the trial continues.
