UK arms exports to Israel press ahead despite licence suspension: Study
Briefly

A report from pro-Palestinian groups indicates the UK government has continued to send munitions to Israel since a September suspension. Despite Foreign Minister David Lammy's assurances that arms exports ceased, evidence shows ongoing shipments, including parts for F-35 jets. This contradiction has prompted criticism from former Labour officials, who argue that the government misled Parliament, raising serious ethical questions about complicity in international humanitarian law violations. The issue of transparency and accountability in arms exports has emerged as a significant concern, with demands for government clarification.
A report released by various pro-Palestinian activist groups reveals that the UK has exported 8,630 munitions to Israel since a government suspension was announced.
Despite claims by ministers, evidence suggests that shipments of components for F-35 fighter jets to Israel have continued since the arms export license suspension.
