Street Heat at Hancock Airbase

4:15 PM to 5 PM E. Molloy Rd, between Thompson and Townline

The Syracuse area hosts Hancock Air National Guard base where the Guard’s 174th Attack Wing conducts drone assassination and target identification missions using MQ-9 Reaper drones in Afghanistan and probably elsewhere. It has been announced that the numbers of drone operators being trained at Hancock will be doubled.

Syracuse Peace Council’s Street Heat holds a monthly presence outside Hancock Airbase to call for an end to the illegal and immoral killing of human beings by weaponized drones, which are piloted remotely from the base. Join us! Signs provided or bring your own progressive signs.

Contact for questions (315) 478-4571

All meetings are held in the Common Council Chambers, 3rd floor of City Hall, 233 East Washington Street. A public comment period begins at 6:30PM.

The CRB was established to ensure an open civilian-controlled process for investigating complaints against members of the Syracuse Police Department. We need to people to attend these meetings to show the CRB that citizens of all colors, incomes and professions care about the relations between the police force and the community.
