'''Palestine Action US''' is the United States branch of [[Palestine Action]], a pro-Palestinian protest network targeting Israeli weapons manufacturers. Its earliest known activities began in February 2023, and it began protests in October following the outbreak of the [[2023 Israel–Hamas war]]. The group, along with its United Kingdom counterpart, has primarily led a global campaign against Israel-based defense electronics company [[Elbit Systems]].<ref name=IP>{{cite news |last1=McHardy |first1=Martha |title=Pro-Palestine activists claim to have shut down Boston arms company that supplies Israel |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/elbit-systems-protest-boston-palestine-b2438583.html |newspaper=The Independent |date=31 October 2023 |access-date=22 November 2023}}</ref><ref name=HS />
In 2024, the group changed its name to Unity of Fields and announced that it would change its focus to actively promote violent insurgency against the United States by spreading “militant propaganda”. It was subsequently banned from social media platforms.<ref name=insurgency>{{cite web|url=https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/article-816918|title=Pro-vandalism group turns into 'militant propaganda front' for US, Israel collapse}}</ref>
