Two shipments from Britain of military components bound for Israel have been seized in Belgium, which has banned aircaft carrying military equipment for Israel from stopping in the country or using its airspace.
Last month, the British news website Declassified, Belgian NGO Vredesactie, Irish news website The Ditch, and the Palestinian Youth Movement alerted authorities in Brussells of a shipment travelling from Britain to Israel through Liege airport.
The consignments left Britain on 23 March and were siezed at Liege airport in Belgium on 24 March.
They were searched by a specialised engineer who found "fire control systems and spare parts for military aircraft", which had not been properly declared.
Belgian authorities reportedly opened a criminal investigation into the affair but have declined to name the firms involved in the complaint.
