"Right now weapons are being used by Israel to drop on Palestinians in this genocide that's been happening."
The group named the street where the protest is taking place in Manchester.
UAV Tactical Systems Limited (U-TacS) an SME owned by Elbit has previously denied that they supply the Israeli military or Israeli Ministry of Defence.
They accused the group of using misinformation as a tactic to recruit people to join them.
The group has previously targeted a facility in Southampton and another in Leicestershire.
Assistant chief constable at Leicestershire Police Adam Slonecki said: “We support the right to protest peacefully but will take immediate action against those who are seeking to commit crime and damage property."
A 24-year-old man and 23-year-old woman were arrested on suspicion of offences under the Public Order Act in Leicester.
Activists also targeted One Eagle Place, Piccadilly, which is home to the offices of Leonardo UK - a defence and security firm.
