India's Role in Supplying Weapon Components to Israel
A report by Amnesty International reveals that India has become a major part of the Israeli weapons supply chain, transforming from an importer to a key contributor in weapons production. India supplies Israel with warheads, shells, and military components, despite the risks of their use in the Gaza conflict. The organization traced hundreds of thousands of weapon components shipped from Indian factories to Israeli suppliers between October 2023 and earlier. According to trade data, these shipments included 390,516 spare parts, 564,970 explosive shells, and 298 military vehicle components. Diplomatic and economic ties between the two countries have continued to strengthen, with India ranking among Israel’s largest arms customers between 2021 and 2025, and thousands of Indian workers being brought to Israel. This cooperation is part of a broader deterioration in Indian-Palestinian relations, with India’s relationship with Israel undergoing a strategic shift and receiving strong support from Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government. This includes increased backing and ideological alignment, despite concerns over security and economic consequences—particularly regarding the potential complicity in war crimes committed in Gaza, as highlighted in UN reports and International Criminal Court decisions.
