My latest in @declassifiedUK is a shocking story of incompetence, malfeasance, and unlawful behaviour:
Britain's Ministry of Defence paid £1.5 billion for drones which kept crashing and couldn't fly in bad weather.
The contract was awarded to Israel's largest arms firm Elbit Systems and Thales from France.
Those companies squeezed the MoD for years, with the drones costing £88,400 per flying hour and executives charging £18,000 a month for hotels.
Meanwhile, Elbit and Thales produced an export variant of the same drone and signed a £400 million contract to sell them to Romania.
Despite everything, they were assisted by the UK government, which subsidised the production of those drones and promised to support export licenses.
Shipping documents expose how dozens of drone components have been sent from Britain to Israel since the contract with Romania was signed - but they haven't been onward exported to Romania.
And open-source evidence now strongly suggests Elbit has been testing the drones in the illegally occupied Golan Heights, likely breaching UK export law.

Amnesty International, Medecins Sans Frontieres, Save the Children, the UN, International Association of Genocide Scholars, B’Tselem, Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, Palestinian Human Rights Organizations Council, Islamic Relief - all say, it's a genocide.
🇮🇱Sir Richard Dalton, who held a number of very senior roles as a diplomat, explained to us how the Israel lobby is "a very powerful force in our society", and how many politicians and journalists "tow the Israeli line" in exchange for a quiet life.
An Israeli state-owned arms company, Rafael - which has played a central role in the Gaza genocide - is disbanding its UK subsidiary following an investigation by Declassified👇
❗️It appears the UK government is not taking any steps to investigate or help investigate Israeli war crimes in Gaza.
With Russia in Ukraine, the UK is giving millions to the ICC to investigate war crimes.
Some war crimes are more acceptable than others.

In November 1944, two Jewish terrorists (part of Stern Gang) murdered UK minister Lord Moyne in Egypt
PM Winston Churchill called them "gangsters worthy of Nazi Germany"
In 1975, they were reinterred in Israel with full military honours - and celebrated as national heroes
She went on TV and legitimised Israeli war crimes.
When I challenged @EmilyThornberry about it, she claimed to have been given secret information Israel was only planning a limited raid.
Who fed her these lies?
Where is the media scrutiny?
Talking of truth: Danny Danon is the Israeli ambassador who demanded that a British journalist, Belle Donati, be dismissed. Her bosses at Sky News obliged.
Britain now "recognises" Palestine
It's theatre. Starmer is still sending a spy plane over Gaza every day to collect intelligence for the Israeli military in real-time
This is the Beechcraft King Air 350—leased from a US company—at RAF Akrotiri on Cyprus at 11.19pm last night
Watch | Australian doctors Dr. Nada Aburok and Dr. Saia Aziz describe the situation in Gaza hospitals as a “nightmare,” with severe shortages of medical supplies, water, and food.
Most patients are children and pregnant women, many the sole survivors of their families, being treated on floors amid mass casualty crises.
Israel targets a Palestinian mother and her son during their displacement with a rocket.
IT'S MADNESS they used a rocket with hundreds of thousands of dollars to kill a mother and her son.
These are the weapons that are flowing to them from the US and EU to kill innocent people
