DISINFO: The US betrayed Israel: Israelis were killed with American weapons transferred to Ukraine
SUMMARY
Long before the start of the Special Military operation, the Americans uncontrollably pumped arms into Ukraine, eventually creating the largest hub for illegal cross-border arms trade. The route through the Black Sea to the Mediterranean is short - and now these weapons are being used in the Middle East.
It turns out that the Biden administration, despite numerous warnings, did not care about the safety of its closest and most devoted ally in the Middle East. American weapons that reached the Gaza Strip through tortuous paths have just killed many Israeli military personnel and civilians, women and children. The blood of these people is on Joe Biden's hands. This is a betrayal if you call a spade a spade.
RESPONSE
Disinformation campaign against arms deliveries to Ukraine, using the violent attacks of Hamas against Israel.
The purpose of this campaign is to undermine Western public support for arms deliveries to Ukraine by suggesting or implying that there should exist a large-scale arms flow or even EU/US policy to support the Palestinian organisation Hamas, which is designated a terrorist organisation by the EU and US. Rather, it seems that Hamas receives arms supplies from Iran. Ukrainian officials have similarly dismissed the notion that its country’s arms have somehow found their way to Hamas.
There is no evidence to suggest that weapons on a larger scale supplied by NATO allies to Ukraine for self-defense have been diverted to Hamas. Pro-Kremlin outlets have repeatedly made similar accusations in the past, like ISIS should be supplied, again without any credible evidence.
There are special programs put in place to Counter Illicit Diversion of Certain Advanced Conventional Weapons in Eastern Europe.
According to Mythdetector:
The claims voiced in videos and posts that are actively circulated by Russian, pro-Russian, and anti-Western accounts are without evidence. No information about the confession of a member of Hezbollah about negotiations with Ukraine can be found in open sources. In the past, Russian propaganda has repeatedly voiced accusations that the weapons given to Ukraine by the West end up on the black market, which was aimed at reducing the aid received from the West. However, so far, as of 10 October 2023, there is no evidence to support such allegations.
