Say no to arms dealers at the EICC

Monday 16 September - Tuesday 17 September

On September 16-19, Edinburgh International Conference Centre, a council owned event space, is set to host SPIE Security + Defence, an arms industry conference sponsored by one of the world’s biggest arms companies, Leonardo.

Leonardo has armed human rights abusers around the world. It makes equipment which is used in F-35 fighter jets, which are being used by Israeli forces in the genocide being inflicted in Gaza.

It is part of the Eurofighter consortium, which makes fighter jets that have been used by Saudi forces in Yemen, and makes helicopters that have been used by Turkey in its military operations against Kurdish groups.

Say no to a trade that profits from genocide!

Edinburgh Gaza Genocide Emergency Committee are organising a demonstration outside the conference centre on 16 & 17 September at 10am.
