Germany announces delivery of new arms shipments to Israel

WORLD, Oct. 10 (YPA) – Germen Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Thursday said that his country would continue to supply arms to Israel, which continues air and ground attacks in Gaza and Lebanon.

During the German Bundestag debate on the Oct. 7, 2023 attack by Hamas, Scholz said: “We have supplied weapons and we will supply weapons. … We have made decisions in the government that will also ensure that there will be further deliveries in the near future. And then you will see that this was a false reproach.”

He added, “We have not decided to halt arms deliveries,” addressing claims from conservative opposition parties that the government had suspended shipments to Tel Aviv for several months, resulting in a “break in German solidarity” with Israel.
