Today marks 23 years since the US-UK-led invasion of Iraq. We mourn the over 1 million lives lost. Arms dealers cashed in then, and they cash in now as the same allies wage war on Iran.

This is a reckless act of escalation that endangers us all. No discussion. No debate. What a disgrace. How on earth can the Prime Minister still pretend we are not involved? It doesn't matter how he dresses it up. Britain is participating in an illegal war of aggression.

The UK government approved £120m for 2 radar licences likely for the Watchkeeper drone sold by Elbit Systems to Romania. While the government claimed this was for re-export - the drone parts are still in Israel. They were never sent to Romania at all.

🚨 Breaking -- Campaign Against Arms Trade (@CAATuk) calls for investigation into UK drone exports to Israel. This comes after we exposed how an Elbit-owned factory exported dozens of drone parts to Israel last year. 👉caat.org.uk/news/caat-call…

Our taxes are going to Elbit Systems. We need a two-way arms embargo now.
John McEvoy@jmcevoy_2

My latest in @declassifiedUK is a shocking story of incompetence, malfeasance, and unlawful behaviour: Britain's Ministry of Defence paid £1.5 billion for drones which kept crashing and couldn't fly in bad weather. The contract was awarded to Israel's largest arms firm Elbit Systems and Thales from France. Those companies squeezed the MoD for years, with the drones costing £88,400 per flying hour and executives charging £18,000 a month for hotels. Meanwhile, Elbit and Thales produced an export variant of the same drone and signed a £400 million contract to sell them to Romania. Despite everything, they were assisted by the UK government, which subsidised the production of those drones and promised to support export licenses. Shipping documents expose how dozens of drone components have been sent from Britain to Israel since the contract with Romania was signed - but they haven't been onward exported to Romania. And open-source evidence now strongly suggests Elbit has been testing the drones in the illegally occupied Golan Heights, likely breaching UK export law.

The British government has been an active participant in Israel's genocide in Gaza. The Gaza Tribunal report has now been released. It uncovers the full extent of Britain's involvement in the Gaza genocide. It's a must read. thegazatribunal.uk/report
