It is the third time Palestine Action has targeted Allianz, with the first round of protests coming in October 2024.

Offices in London, Manchester, Glasgow, Birmingham and other cities saw windows smashed, Palestinian flags hung and red paint sprayed across facades by the protesters.

On 28 January 2025, Palestine Action said it had targeted nine of the insurer’s locations across England, Scotland and Wales, as well as offices in Germany, Portugal and the Netherlands.

The protests were against Elbit Systems, which manufactures over 85% of Israel’s drones, including quadcopters used by the country’s military to perform targeted military operations.

A spokesperson from Palestine Action previously said that it would continue to take “direct action” against Elbit Systems and companies that support it.

In response to the protest in January, Allianz said: ”We respect everyone’s right to have and express their opinion.

”However, we have zero tolerance for any criminal behaviour that threatens the safety or security of our people, property and business. Our business operations and service to customers and clients remain unaffected.”

The insurer issued the same statement in response to the latest protest.
