LONDON, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 23: Activist Greta Thunberg is arrested and sits in the back of a police van outside the offices of Aspen Insurance on December 23, 2025 in London, England. The activists targeted the company due to its alleged business relationship with the Israeli defence contractor Elbit Systems. They are also protesting in support of six of the so-called "Filton 24" prisoners who were arrested in 2024 and have been refusing food for over 50 days while being held on remand ahead of a trial.
