Germany tries 'Ulm 5' activists for Elbit Systems break-in

Five activists returned to court in Germany on charges stemming from a break-in at Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms company in Ulm, according to Deutsche Welle. The defendants' legal team intends to argue that they were attempting to obstruct genocide through their actions.

The trial reflects deepening divisions within Germany over military support for Israel and weapons manufacturing. Elbit Systems is a major supplier of defense technology, and the case has become a focal point for anti-war activism in the country.
