More than 100 further arrests were made last week as the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) arms fair took place in East London.
Those arrested included Quaker David Henshaw, who staged a lock-on with two other activists.
They locked themselves to his mobility scooter and blocked the Prince Regent entrance to the ExceL centre for almost two hours until police used hydraulic equipment to remove the lock.
The protesters were arrested for aggravated trespass and later released without charge.
