| [IsraelTimes] Pro-Paleostinian, anti-Israel activists targeted the British offices of German financial services firm Allianz, daubing the outside with red paint in protest over the company’s links to Israeli defense firm Elbit Systems. Paleostine Action claims responsibility for the protest on social media platform X, and says demonstrators attacked 10 Allianz offices in the UK and "occupied" the insurer’s UK headquarters in Guildford, south of London, overnight. "Without insurance, Elbit couldn’t operate in Britannia," Paleostine Action says in its post, describing Allianz as "investors and insurers of Israel’s biggest weapons firm." UK-based spokespeople for Allianz, one of Europe’s biggest financial services groups, did not respond to a request for comment.

| #1 Had fire insurance with Allianz, house burnt down in bushfire in 2019. 3 weeks after fire, they tell us we will be paid out in full. Good company. |
