🚨Big scoop here with Iona Craig at @DropSiteNews:
The UAE has been covertly assisting the Houthis, also known as Ansarallah, in their war against Saudi Arabia inside Yemen https://t.co/5aAa619jJ1
CASE UPDATES | #ANGOLAGATE
The Angolagate scandal erupted in #France in 1999, exposing a covert arms-trading network that supplied the Angolan government during its renewed civil war against UNITA rebels.

A British drone company backed by MoD funding is now owned by a US defence group whose defence arm is led by former Mossad chief David Barnea.
That same group is developing attack drones for Israel.
My investigation for @BylineTimes:

Jared Kushner received $2 billion from Saudi Arabia & the UAE to carry out political favors and was encouraged to keep the money in Israel’s central bank.
This is the biggest corruption scandal in political history.
Kushner has managed to outcrime Trump!
This is Labour Politician Lord Tom Watson being paid to be a salesman for Palantir, a highly controversial tech company that has Government contracts.
This is a sign of a democracy in decline.
Today Israeli authorities barred me and other European elected representatives from entering the West Bank to meet Palestinian students and civil society leaders, as part of a @ProgIntl delegation.
We knew that by crossing into the occupied Palestinian territories, we risked being detained, interrogated and turned away by Israeli authorities. And that, alas, is exactly what happened.
For more than eight hours, we were held, interrogated and made to feel as though we had done something wrong simply by attempting to enter.
The simple truth is we had done nothing wrong. We went to show our support for the Palestinian people and highlight the terrible injustice and violence being perpetrated against them. We want to ensure that people back home do not look away from the reality of what is happening.
Ultimately, we went to show solidarity. But we left with an even greater determination to speak out. We will not be silenced, and we will not look away. None of us should.
@andrewfeinstein sits down with @AvaSantina on the @politicsjoe podcast to discuss the recent by-election, the failure of politicians across the globe to represent the most urgent needs of the people they represent, and the war machine propping up horror across the globe.
My recent interview on Politics Joe, explaining how the US, UK & EU could stop the killing in Gaza within a couple of weeks. By stopping arms supplies to Israel. By not doing so they are complicit in the slaughter

We all know about Man City, but how much of UK does the UAE really own?
I investigated for @MiddleEastEye. Tracing Emirati-linked holdings in the UK took me from the glitz of Mayfair’s Berkeley Square to the pub and back, via the high street pound shop.

The arms industry ranks these companies as “anti-corruption”, but they each appear in multiple corruption cases in the Corruption Tracker.

Anduril will soon be taking all the billion-dollar contracts for autonomous weapons from Western governments like Australia and across Europe, locking our "security" even further into the US tech-bro mentality of warmongers like Palmer Luckey

Isembard is a new weapons company whose mission is “building the industrial base of the West”.
Their new London factory based in Southwark produces components for drones, missiles, jet engines, and submarines.
Detailed and acute review of Making A Killing, the new book from my SWI colleagues (with a little help from me). Very excited this will be out in November, and that people will get to hear from a new generation of incredible investigators: Ruth Rohde and Jack Cinamon.
New year-long investigation by @AOAV reporting: 'The use of explosive weapons in Gaza: a forensic analysis of munitions and civilian harm'.
Examining the weapons used by Israel tracing them to their makers and their documented incidents of civilian harm.

In the US targeting of Osama bin Laden, there was a set civilian casualty threshold of 30. In Gaza, it was reportedly 15-20 civilians per junior Hamas member, over 100 civilians for a senior official, and 300 civilians were approved as collateral to kill commander Ayman Nofal.
Naza is an incredible film. Unflinching, suffocating, devastating.
The ongoing Gaza genocide is undeniable at this point. Undeniable.
There must be justice.
