The EU's funding and support for Israeli arms companies – euobserver

Israel's two largest arms companies, Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), which supply the IDF, also receive European funding.

Elbit manufactures armed swarm drones, white phosphorus and cluster bomb artillery, the use of which is illegal under international law, while IAI, which participated in various H2020 projects including SAFEDRONE and RESPONDRONE, is a key partner in patrolling the apartheid wall turning Gaza into an open-air prison.

Once 'tested' on Palestinians, EU investment comes full circle when the EU and its member states buy back the end product.

Antony Loewenstein, journalist and author of The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World, joins The Chris Hedges Report for a deep dive into the disturbing links between Israeli Apartheid, the arms industry, and global repression of civilian populations.

🇵🇸 Ceasefire Inc.: How the World Reroutes While Gaza Burns | 21st Century Wire

In May 2026, Al Jazeera published a months-long investigation built from Israeli Tax Authority records, customs documents and freedom-of-information requests, tracking who was still arming Israel while Gaza was being flattened.

The reporters found that at least 51 countries and self-governing territories kept military-related goods flowing into Israel even after the International Court of Justice warned in January 2024 that there was a plausible risk of #genocide in #Gaza and reminded states of their duty to prevent it.

Between October 2023 and October 2025, those imports were worth about $885.6 million, and most arrived after the court had already spoken.
