answer text <p>Criterion 2c of the Government’s export licensing Criteria states that the Government will not grant a licence if there is a clear risk that the items might be used in the commission of a serious violation of international humanitarian law (IHL).

Country breakdowns can be found on these pages. </ins></p><p><ins class="ministerial">Bespoke reports (e.g. by Criterion 2) may also be produced by registering on the Strategic Export Controls Reports and Statistics Website at: <a href="https://www.exportcontroldb.trade.gov.uk/sdb2/fox/sdb/SDBHOME" target="_blank">https://www.exportcontroldb.trade.gov.uk/sdb2/fox/sdb/SDBHOME</a></ins></p>
