Honouring Hind Rajab shutting down Ferra

Monday 16 February 2026

This morning, brave souls are picketing the Ferra Engineering weapons Factory at Tingalpa in Brisbane. Ferra makes it possible for Israel to drop heavier bombs on Gaza.

Ferra Engineering weapons Factory and directed all the protesters to leave the scene, stipulating 100 meters from the site. Is this direction was unreasonable the protesters walked across the road and maintained their vigil in support of Mia Bloom.

9.30 am arrest and off to the Wynuum Watchouse

Singer-songwriter Mia Bloom has shut down the Ferra Weapons Factory in Brisbane, Magan-djin, calling on the federal government to acknowledge its complicity in the ongoing violence in Palestine and immediately cease arms exports to Israel.

Ferra Engineering in Tingalpa manufactures over 100 components for F-35 fighter jets, including weapon adapters that carry and release bombs. Ferra is the only company in the world producing this critical component-meaning every
bomb dropped by Israeli F-35s is released using parts built in Brisbane.

These jets are actively used in bombardment campaigns across
Gaza that have killed tens of thousands of civilians, including children, sheltering in schools, hospitals, and refugee camps. This supply chain bottleneck in Brisbane gives Australians unique leverage to disrupt weapons flow enabling documented war crimes.

The Australian government has maintained that it does not supply weapons to Israel, yet companies like Ferra continue to manufacture components for weapon systems that are deployed in documented attacks on civilian populations.

Mia Bloom is taking this action today on behalf of everyday Australians who say they can no longer remain silent as their government enables genocide through weapons exports.

    When will you be blockading Ferra again. I missed the one one Monday and would promote the next one widely so that we get more people.
