`damaged´
Throwing paint into a jet engine really is damage. You gave to take the engine apart and meticulously clean out the paint before you can run it again, because otherwise the engine could do itself serious harm next time it’s started. That’s a very expensive thing to do.
That actually makes it a very effective act of protest, which is why the government has come down so hard on them
Were the actual people who performed the action caught?
That’s something that would cost thousands to fix if done to a car, as the paint needs to be sanded back and repainted. On an aircraft, it could easily be a six figure job, in addition to a multimillion dollar aircraft being unable to be flown.
Calling it terrorism is silly, but it’s absolutely damage.
