🇮🇪 #Ireland - 🇮🇱 #Israel: Newly released internal documents reveal that the Irish government approved approximately €20 million worth of “dual-use” exports to the IDF and Israel’s Ministry of Defence in 2024, during the height of the war in Gaza.
The approved exports included technology and equipment with both civilian and military applications. The documents reportedly show that Irish authorities later on reversed course next year in 2025, citing concerns over human rights, regional stability, and the risk that the exported technology could be diverted for military use.
The revelations have triggered political backlash in Ireland, with opposition figures accusing the government of contradicting its public stance on Gaza.
