Elbit Systems is the largest private arms manufacturer in Israel and one of the main suppliers to the Israeli military. Around 85% of the IOF’s drones come from Elbit Systems. However, few arms companies face as much opposition as Elbit Systems. Well-known examples include the UK, but protests are also growing in the US, Sweden, Switzerland, and Germany, among other countries. Since December 2023, the Shut Elbit Down campaign has also been running in Germany.
From 17th – 21st September 2025, Shut Elbit Down is organising a Camp & Protest Days in Ulm, where Elbit’s European headquarters are located. On the 20th, a demonstration will be held to call for the shutdown of their operations. Elbit’s weapons contribute directly to the occupation of Palestine and the ongoing genocide in Gaza. You can register for the camp here.
A solibus will be leaving Berlin on 17th September and returning on the 21st for a suggested donation of €25 per person. Secure your seat now, as the Soli-Bus is going only if there are enough confirmed bookings to have a climate friendly ride – and we want to confirm it soon. Write to solibusprotestcamp@proton.me
We demand:
- Elbit Systems out of Ulm!
- Stop the genocide in Gaza!
- A comprehensive military embargo against the zionist entity!
- Free Palestine
The resistance against Elbit Systems is growing in Ulm. Join the movement against this criminal corporation.
