A man climbed onto the roof of a U.S. military aircraft Saturday as it was parked at Shannon Airport, a frequent site of protests demanding the Irish government end U.S. military-chartered flights and weapons shipments to Israel.
Police arrested but did not identify the man, who is accused of using a hatchet to sabotage its wing and fuselage and causing extensive damage to the $75 million C-130 Hercules military transport.
