Description

Israel’s defense industry is making record profits with its weapons manufacturers marketing their products as “battle-tested”, using images of strikes on Gaza as proof of their apparent success. Despite an ongoing genocide trial and an ICC warrant for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, countries around the world are buying these weapons in unprecedented amounts, making the genocide highly profitable. In 2024, Israel sold 15 billion dollars worth of weapons. A 13% jump from the year before. Europe was the number one buyer of Israeli weapons, followed by India. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh has more on how Israel has become one of the world's top ten exporters of weapons and a warning some scenes in her report are distressing.
