Amnesty: India sent 2,596 arms shipments to Israel during genocide in Gaza Submitted by Azad Essa on Wed, 07/29/2026 - 15:05 Amnesty said its 'conservative' methodology meant it was likely underestimating the true extent of India's contribution to Israel Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his Indian counterpart, Narendra Modi, attend a press conference in Jerusalem, on 26 February 2026 (Gil Cohen-Magen/AFP) Off Indian state-owned and private companies shipped at least 2,596 consignments comprising hundreds of thousands of arms, ammunition and military components to Israel during the genocide in Gaza, a new Amnesty International report has revealed.
