<p>Military items sold to other countries by the UK require export licences. Export
licence applications are rigorously assessed on a case-by-case basis against the Consolidated
EU and National Arms Export Licensing Criteria, taking account of all prevailing circumstances
at the time of the application. Signed end user undertakings from the intended recipient,
about the intended end use, form part of our consideration but we do not rely solely
on these when making our assessment.</p><p> </p><p>Following events in 2018 on the
Israel/Gaza border the Government reviewed all extant military export licences for
Israel. We have no information to indicate that UK-supplied equipment has been used
in a way that is inconsistent with the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing
Criteria. The Government continues to monitor the situation in Israel and Gaza very
closely.</p>
