India Is Providing Military Assistance to Israel
(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - India has been providing significant military assistance to Israel since Oct. 7. Indian media reported in February that India was supplying Israel with advanced Hermes 900 drones manufactured in Hyderabad in a factory established by Israel to supply these drones to the Indian military. Twenty drones were converted specifically for the IDF due to the shortage created during the war. India has also supplied Israel with artillery shells and other weapons since the start of the war. "The Indians always remind us that Israel was there for them during the Kargil War," says Daniel Carmon, former Israeli ambassador to India, referring to India's military conflict with Pakistan in 1999. "Israel was one of the few countries that stood by them and provided them with weapons. The Indians don't forget this and might now be returning the favor."
