⭕️ Spain formally approves permanent arms embargo on Israel
Spain’s parliament has formally approved a permanent arms embargo on Israel, voting 178 to 169 to ban the sale of weapons, dual-use technology, and military equipment in response to what it called the genocide in Gaza.
The measure, announced earlier by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, formalizes a ban in effect since October 2023 and is part of broader efforts to increase pressure on Israel. Sanchez also announced a ban on ships carrying fuel for the Israeli military from docking in Spanish ports.
