EU research funds flow to Israel despite outrage over Gaza war
Briefly

"Data collected by the European Commission and analysed by Al Jazeera shows that since October 7, the EU has awarded Israeli institutions more than 238 million euros ($250m), including 640,000 euros ($674,000) to Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI)".
"While guidelines regulating the Horizon framework require funded projects to be exclusively focused on civil applications, they acknowledge that a considerable number of technologies and products are generic and can address the needs of both civil and military users."
"More than 2,000 European academics and 45 organisations petitioned the EU to end all funding to Israeli institutions, saying the Horizon framework had played a critical role in the advancement of Israeli military technology."
