Police Scotland has confirmed it is investigating after pro-Palestine activists vandalised the premises of a logistics firm in Glasgow, which is alleged to have links to Israel.
The group targeted DB Schenker, part of DSV, which they claim provides “logistics transport services” to Israeli defence technology company Elbit Systems.
Activists say they bypassed security in the early hours of Tuesday and covered the building’s foyer and offices with paint and messages saying “Drop Elbit” on the walls.
Pictures from the scene also showed broken windows at the building, which is in the Hillington area.
The group said the action came after incidents targeting DSV at Birmingham Airport and Bristol earlier this year.
A spokesperson for the Glasgow group said: “As long as DSV and its subsidiaries maintain their contract with Elbit Systems, property damage and disruption will continue.”
The autonomous group said dropping Elbit could be DSV’s “wisest logistics decision yet”.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 6 am on Tuesday, August 4, police received a report of premises in Mossland Road, Hillington, Glasgow, having been vandalised. Enquiries are ongoing.”
DSV has been approached for comment.
