Britain must immediately end arms sales to Israel, campaigners demand
Israeli soldiers deployed to Gaza, Saturday, Aug. 6, 2022.

THE British government must end arms sales to Israel in response to the state’s latest deadly onslaught on the Gaza strip, campaigners have urged. 

The Tory government has licensed at least £442 million worth of arms to Israeli forces since 2015, including bombs, drones, aircraft and ammunition, according to the Campaign Against the Arms Trade (CAAT). 

The campaign group says that the government must immediately halt arms sales to Israel after its forces massacred 44 Palestinians, including 15 children, in a three-day attack on Gaza.
