Amnesty International has claimed that Indian companies exported 2,596 shipments of weapons, ammunition and military components to Israel between October 2023 and November 2025, raising concerns over India’s role in the ongoing Gaza conflict. In its report titled Made in India: The Supply of Weapons and Ammunition to Israel, the rights organisation said it analysed verified shipment records and alleged that the exports included hundreds of thousands of small arms parts, explosive ordnance components and military vehicle parts. Amnesty argued that these transfers carried a significant risk of contributing to violations of international law.

The report named several defence manufacturers, including government-owned firms Munitions India Limited (MIL), India Optel Limited (IOL) and Advanced Weapons and Equipment India Limited (AWEIL), as well as private companies such as PLR Systems, Indo-MIM Private Limited, Kalyani Strategic Systems, Alpha Elsec Defence and Aerospace Systems, Ashoka Manufacturing Private Limited and Premier Explosives Limited. According to Amnesty, the shipments included artillery shells, mortar launchers, infrared sensors, machine gun components and explosive warhead parts supplied to Israeli defence companies, including Elbit Systems and Israel Weapon Industries.

Amnesty further stated that Indian authorities “knew or should have known” that such exports could contribute to serious violations of international humanitarian law, citing the International Court of Justice’s observations on Gaza. The organisation called on India to immediately halt all arms transfers to Israel, introduce stricter human rights checks in its export licensing process and join the Arms Trade Treaty. The report’s allegations have been made by Amnesty International, while Israel has consistently rejected accusations of genocide and the Government of India had not responded to the report at the time of publication.
