Declassified investigation reveals 13 peers have links to Israel’s arms trade
Palestinians flee from northern Gaza as Israeli tanks block the Salah al-Din road in the central Gaza Strip on November 24, 2023
LORDS were found to be profiting from the assault against Gaza today after a Declassified UK investigation revealed 13 peers have links to Israel’s arms trade.
Seven peers work for companies involved with Israel’s weapons trade, while another six hold shares in firms that supply the Israeli military, the report said.
The shareholdings are publicly declared, meaning the value of each is at least £100,000, likely seeing turnover increase since Israel intensified its assault on Gaza on October 7.
