For the first time since 2006 the state has admitted it allowed munitions – onboard a US war plane authorised by Simon Harris to land at Shannon Airport – to travel through Irish territory on their way to Israel
Darragh O’Brien granted the exemption.

A Basque company last week sent almost half a tonne of vehicle components to the Israel Defense Forces’ largest weapons supplier.
It went less than a week after Spain said it would ban the export of military goods to Israel.

Dublin-based Innalabs is sending a second shipment of dual-use goods today to Israeli arms company Elbit Systems – the largest supplier of weapons to the IDF.
The Ditch reported last month that the Irish company was sending parts used in unmanned drones to Israel.
