Palestine Action said its activists vandalised Barclays Bank in Broadmead as part of a coordinated attack on branches across the UK.
A Barclays Bank branch in Bristol city centre has been left with shattered windows and covered in red paint following a 'co-ordinated attack' by a pro-Palestine group.
Twenty branches - including branches in Brighton and Glasgow - were targeted in the attack which happened in the early hours of Monday 10 June. The group says it partnered with Shut the System, a recently launched underground climate movement, to launch the attacks. "Barclays Bank is funding the crises of climate collapse and genocide in Palestine," a Palestine Action spokesperson said.
