Barclays branches across UK targeted by protesters
BBC. Barclays Bank's windows have been smashed as part of a co-ordinated UK attack by a pro-Palestine group. Palestine Action has claimed responsibility for the incident, which also saw red graffiti sprayed over the bank's Bristol branch in Broadmead. Twenty buildings - including branches in London and Brighton - were targeted during the early-morning action on Monday. Shut the System, a recently launched underground climate movement, partnered with Palestine Action's underground division to launch the attacks, both activist groups confirmed. According to the groups, targeted actions will continue until Barclays stops investing in certain companies. A spokesperson for Barclays said the bank "Provides vital financial services to US, UK and European public companies that supply defence products to NATO and its allies".
