Protesters gathered outside the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Center, where the three-day Land Forces International Land Defense Exposition kicked off on Wednesday. Organizers describe the event as the premier gateway to the land defense markets of Australia and the region, and a platform for interaction with major prime contractors from the United States and Europe.
We're protesting to stand up for all those who have been killed by the type of weapons on display at the convention. Many of the weapons inside the convention center are advertised as battle-tested. In the context of Israeli weapons firms, which are present, this means tested through killing civilians in Gaza.
