She was taken into custody during the Prisoners for Palestine action at Aspen Insurance in London, which is associated with the Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems.
Palestine Action was designated as a proscribed organization and labeled a terror group by the Home Secretary after members of the pro-Palestinian group broke into military premises.
This designation, which followed incidents of activists vandalizing military aircraft at the RAF base, renders it illegal to be a member of the group.
