Protesters at BAE Systems Glasgow yard

Campaigners are staging a blockade at a defence company's shipyard in Glasgow in protest over its ties to Israel as they call for a ceasefire.

The blockade at the entrances to the BAE Systems site in Govan in Glasgow has been organised by a local group in co-ordination with Workers for a Free Palestine.

They are urging BAE to end their ties with Israel and cease all weapons, defence and supplies trading with them.

Protesters holding a banner saying "Stop Arming Israel" could be seen at one of the entrances.
