In short:

About 300 people, including many who travelled in from interstate, have protested against joint Australian-US defence facility Pine Gap in Alice Springs.

The rally was the biggest protest to be held at the secretive facility since 1987.

Protesters called for Pine Gap to be closed and for the land to be returned to the Arrernte people, with traditional owners delivering a letter to the base's front gates.
