“[UK Trade Secretary] Kemi #Badenoch has not stopped any arms deals with Israel since October 7, instead allowing British companies to export components for military aircraft.”
[..]
“The UK government’s decision to greenlight more than 100 such export deals with Israel over the last eight months could open up British ministers to international arrest applications over complicity in war crimes.
Emily Apple from Campaign Against Arms Trade (#CAAT) told Declassified: ‘These figures show that it’s business as usual for arms dealers to break international law and continue arming Israel’s genocide.
‘The #Conservative government and the UK arms trade are complicit in the horrendous war crimes that Israel is committing against Palestinian people in Gaza.’”
