Amnesty International has accused India sent 2,596 arms shipments to Israel since October 2023

Amnesty International has accused India of continuing to supply weapons, ammunition, parts and components to Israel despite the risk they could be used in what the group calls an ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

In a report published on 29 July 2026 titled Made in India: The Supply of Weapons and Ammunition to Israel, Amnesty said its investigators analysed 2,596 shipments of small arms, ammunition, military vehicles and related parts exported from India to Israel between 7 October 2023 and 30 November 2025.

According to the report, Indian companies supplied at least 390,516 small-arms parts for military-grade weapons, 564,970 parts of explosive ordnance (including drone warheads and artillery shell casings), and 298 components of military vehicles to large Israeli firms that supply the Israeli military. These include machine-gun components, 155mm high-explosive artillery shells sent to Elbit Systems, explosive warheads for loitering munitions, and armoured-vehicle parts.

Amnesty named several Indian exporters, including state-owned defence public-sector undertakings such as Munitions India Limited, India Optel Limited and Advanced Weapons and Equipment India Limited, as well as private firms including PLR Systems (a joint venture involving Adani Defence & Aerospace), Indo MIM, Kalyani Systems and Alpha Elsec Defence & Aerospace Systems. Recipients included major Israeli defence companies Elbit Systems, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries.

The rights group argued that India “knew or should have known” the transfers carried a substantial risk of contributing to serious violations of international law, and that New Delhi may risk complicity under the law of state responsibility. Amnesty called for a comprehensive arms embargo on Israel covering weapons, parts, components and related assistance.

The report relies on publicly available shipment-level trade data and focuses on items classified under relevant Harmonised System codes for arms and armoured vehicles. Amnesty noted that its figures are conservative and do not capture the full extent of possible dual-use or defensive exports.
