  1. Company Behind #CaliforniaChemicalLeak Was Building #F35 Parts Amid Rush of Orders From #US and #Israel

    By Jonah Valdez, 5/28/2026

    "The military contractor responsible for a Southern California chemical leak that forced as many as 50,000 people to evacuate their homes over the weekend manufactures parts of F-35 fighter jets likely bound for Israel, The Intercept has learned.

    "The #GardenGroveCA, #GKNAerospace plant, whose 7,000-gallon chemical tank ruptured last week and threatened to explode, has brought in more than $13 million since 2017 in subcontracts with military manufacturing giant #LockheedMartin, according to an analysis of federal contract data conducted by the #PalestinianYouthMovement and independently verified by The Intercept. Further analysis of F-35 production for Israel conducted in 2025 by #Ploughshares, a Canadian independent research institute, found that Lockheed doles out subcontracts to hundreds of companies across more than a dozen countries to help build the jets. Among them is GKN Aerospace Transparency Inc., the GKN subsidiary based in Garden Grove, which raked in more than $255 million from subcontracts with Lockheed Martin.

    " 'While #GKN chases contracts and profits, our community pays the price with school closures and disrupted livelihoods,' Sarah Awaida, an organizer with the Palestinian Youth Movement and Garden Grove resident who was evacuated due to the leak, said at a press conference in the city on Tuesday. “And our people abroad pay the price when the same weapon systems produced here are used to massacre people in #Gaza, in #Lebanon, in #Iran and all across the region.'

    "Garden Grove is a predominantly #WorkingClass and #immigrant city in Orange County, just outside of Los Angeles. The evacuation order, which has since been lifted, disproportionately affected residents who are #LowerIncome."

  15. UK Delays F-35 Software, Turns to US Glide Bombs

    The UK Ministry of Defence has authorised the purchase of US-made glide bombs, known as GBU-53/B StormBreaker, to equip the F-35 with an interim stand-off capability until its own advanced SPEAR 3 system is ready.
