"In March, the Statewatch NGO published an investigation that found multiple Israeli drone companies had received money from EU framework programmes, and that this drone technology was now potentially being used in the war in Gaza.

Asked about the investigation, a Commission spokesperson pointed out that “results of R&D projects may develop – either immediately or with adaptation – technologies with a dual-use potential, even if these R&D projects were originally intended for purely civil applications. This transition could happen beyond the lifetime of the R&D project itself.”"

Our work is only possible with your support.
