Drone Protests Grow Worldwide
Public opposition to the growing use of unmanned drones is being made much more visible this week in protests taking place around the world.
The most high-profile event is taking place in Pakistan as Imran Khan leads thousands on a march against US drone strikes. Dozens of non-Pakistanis have also joined the protests in solidarity, including Clive Stafford Smith of the Human Rights group, Reprieve, and members of the US campaign group, CodePink
Protests are also taking place in Australia, the US and Europe. Ten people were arrested at a protest at the US base in Nevada from where US and UK operate armed drones over Afghanistan.
Here in the UK events are taking place around the country, including a peace walk from drone manufacture UAV Engines in Shenstone to RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire; a cycle ride from Fylingdales to Menwith Hill to highlight the intelligence connection; and a protest outside the US Embassy in London. Public meetings, street stall and vigils are also taking place around the country.
