HRW calls on Canada to suspend arms sales to Israel

The rights watchdog has called on the Canadian government to suspend arms sales to Israel in order to avoid complicity in potential war crimes.

In a letter today, the group said countries that “transfer arms to another country that are likely to be used in the commission of war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide risk being complicit in those crimes”.

The letter also cites a recent International Court of Justice decision – that a case alleging that Israel is committing acts of genocide against the Palestinians is “plausible” – as further reason to halt its arms transfers to Israel.
