Activists in Netherlands protest on roof of Microsoft site storing Israeli military data

Demonstration follows revelation firm's servers holding huge collection of intercepted Palestinian phone calls

Activists have staged a protest on the roof of a Microsoft datacentre in the Netherlands after revelations the Israeli military is storing large volumes of data in the country.

Images posted on social media showed some of the activists blocking access to the large Microsoft facility in the north-west of the country on Sunday, while others scaled the building's roof and lit flares.
