Italy judiciary blocks Israeli radar sale
The Italian administrative court has suspended the deal to supply Rome International Airport with an Israeli radar system from Rafael Corporation due to suspicions regarding the contracting procedures. Experts concluded that the system possesses military capabilities, which require different legal procedures. The court issued a ruling to replace the system with one from an Italian company (ELT) within two months and referred the case to criminal investigations, emphasizing that the system is classified as military equipment and requires legal permits that have not been obtained. This decision comes amid political and diplomatic tensions between Italy and Israel. The airport's operating company confirmed that the system is dual-use and that operations will continue during the transition process.
