Germany Moves To Stop 🛑 Sending WEAPONS To Israel - What’s Next?
Germany has put a hold on new exports of weapons of war to Israel while it deals with legal challenges, according to a Reuters analysis of data and a source close to the Economy Ministry.
A source close to the ministry cited a senior government official as saying it had stopped work on approving export licences for arms to Israel due to legal and political pressure from legal cases arguing that such exports from Germany breached humanitarian law.
The Economy Ministry has not responded to requests for comment. However, the German government did issue a statement after the Reuters story was published.
"There is no German arms export boycott against Israel," government spokesperson Steffen Hebestreit said.
