"Israel's Controversial Decision: Selling Defense Tools to Germany 75 Years after the Holocaust"
Israel's Ministry of Defense has announced that Israel will sign a $3.5 billion defense agreement with Germany, marking Israel's largest defense deal ever. The agreement includes the sale of the Arrow-3 missile defense system, which has exceptional long-range interception capabilities. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it a historic turnaround, as Israel, 75 years after the Holocaust, is now selling Germany the tools to defend itself. The deal could draw the attention of Russia, as Israel has maintained working relations with Russia and has refrained from sending arms to Ukraine. German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius welcomed the approval, stating that the procurement plan is essential for protecting Germany from ballistic missile attacks and signifies the special German-Israeli relations.
