Following breach of international humanitarian law, UK to halt some arms exports to Israel - report

The UK will suspend 30 of its 350 arms exports licenses to Israel due to a “clear risk” that they could be used in breaches of international humanitarian law, Foreign Secretary David Lammy told parliament.

Lammy added that the partial ban will include items “which could be used in the current conflict in Gaza” against Hamas but did not include parts for F-35 fighter jets, Al Jazeera reported.

However, Samel Perlo-Freeman of the Campaign Against Arms Trade told Al Jazeera that while the UK has “acknowledged for the first time that Israel is not complying with international law”, there is “one huge, huge loophole” regarding components for the F-35 fighter jets still being supplied to Israel.

“We had confirmation just today from a Danish NGO Danwatch which got confirmation from the Israeli military that an F-35 was used to drop 3,000-pound bombs on al-Mawasi, a so-called safe zone, on July 19,” he said. “So saying that you’re going to stop arms that might be used in Gaza except for the F-35 is a bit like saying you’re going vegetarian except for bacon.”


UK officials argued that suspending critical components within a global pool of "spare parts" could harm the maintenance of F-35s in other countries, the Financial Times reported.

Scholz’s pro-war policy faces setback in Eastern Germany elections

Parties critical of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s support for the Western-backed Ukraine proxy war against Russia fared well in elections in eastern German states.

“The election results of Sunday are bitter,” said Scholz. “Our country cannot and must not become accustomed to this.”


The AfD and BSW were united in their expression of opposition to Scholz’s support for US proxy war against Russia. Both parties called for an end to arms shipments to the Kiev regime and immediate negotiations to bring about a peaceful end to the conflict. The BSW has also demanded a popular referendum on plans to station US missiles in Germany as a condition for any coalition.

Die Linke has been more internally divided on the issue, but influential figures within the party have also criticized Scholz’s pro-war stance.

The Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has strongly criticized German chancellor Olaf Scholz for his response to the apparent sabotage of the Russo-German Nord Stream gas pipeline in 2022, which is widely perceived to have been carried out by or on behalf of the United States.

“There is no reason to assume that the German government is seriously interested in unearthing the truth about who is behind the Nord Stream attacks,” said AfD politician Dr. Gunnar Beck recently. “The German government regularly yields to international pressure from both the EU and the US. It will not be able and not be willing, more importantly, to assert the national interests.”
