Item 1 of 5

Since 2019 Australia has exported arms and ammunition to Israel totaling $13m, including $2.3m in 2022, according to trade figures from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. Over a similar period of time, 322 Weapons Export Permits have been granted to export Australian made weapons, including parts and components, to Israel.

Under the legislated conditions set out under Weapons Export Permits, it is unlawful to export weapons which may contribute to human rights violations or further destabilisation of a region. Australia also has international obligations.

While the Australian government has denied exporting ‘weapons’ to Israel since the beginning of the Israel and Palestinian war. It has made no mention of whether parts, components, ammunition, and ground support equipment have continued to be exported to Israel.
