UK firm RCV Engines has officially cancelled its agreement with Israel for the supply of drone engines, after the deal and the use of the drones to attack civilians in Gaza was exposed by Declassified UK in April.

A Declassified UK investigation exposed the company’s involvement in supplying the engines for the ‘APUS 25’ “long-endurance TactiQuad” drone manufactured by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) for use by the occupation against the people of Gaza.
