Israeli Sales of Arms and Cyber Spike
(Ha'aretz) Oded Yaron - The number of countries purchasing Israeli weapons and security-related cyber systems has skyrocketed in recent years, due to an increase in arms deals with signatories of the Abraham Accords, as well as the war in Ukraine, which led to increased security expenditures in Europe and NATO countries. Data provided by the Israel Defense Ministry reveals that 56 countries received ministry approval to purchase drones in 2022. Munitions were exported to 61 countries; training programs are currently being supplied to 17; and 83 countries have purchased cyber and intelligence systems.
