"The senior judge granted them bail on stringent conditions, including a surety of 10,000. The defendants face a three-week trial before a high court judge that has been scheduled at Birmingham Crown Court from 8 June."
Four individuals—Iain Evans, Hisham Alkhamesi, Bea Sherman, and Hana Yun Stevens—have been charged with criminal damage following an alleged break-in at Moog Aircraft Group's facility in Wolverhampton in August. The defendants deny responsibility for approximately £1.2 million in damage to skylights and solar panels. The alleged attack targeted the manufacturer for supplying equipment for F-35 fighter jets used by the Israeli military. The group was reportedly named Palestinian Martyrs online. All four defendants entered not guilty pleas at London's Old Bailey and were granted bail with stringent conditions, including a £10,000 surety. A three-week trial is scheduled for June at Birmingham Crown Court.
