Israeli arms exports are 'helping to fuel conflict in South Sudan' despite EU embargo

[Свободный Ион]

For years there have been persistent reports of Israel selling arms to regimes with records of egregious human rights abuses without the issue being discussed or questioned at home. But that is changing.
Eitay Mack, a young lawyer, is trying to break through the wall of secrecy around Israeli weapons exports and is pressing for an end to the arms and know-how transfers that are currently helping to fuel South Sudan’s civil war and other conflicts. He claims Israel is “prolonging” the conflict in South Sudan which, according to estimates, has claimed tens of thousands of lives.
