Israel approved the supply of anti-drone systems to Ukraine

Israel has allowed two of its defense companies to sell anti-drone systems to Ukraine. Israeli journalist Barak Ravid reported this. "Israel has approved the export licenses for the possible sale of anti-drone jamming systems to Ukraine," the statement reads.

These systems could help Ukraine counter Iranian drones used by Russia during the war against Ukraine. For the first time since Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Israel has approved defense export licenses for possible weapons sales to Ukraine.

"Israel has been careful not to give military assistance to Ukraine, fearing such a move could create tension with Russia and harm Israeli security interests in Syria," the journalist says.

He mentioned that the export licenses approval by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Foreign Minister Eli Cohen came in mid-February as Israel was conducting a Benjamin Netanyahu-ordered review of its policy toward the war. The licenses were approved for two Israeli companies -- Elbit and Rafael -- that develop anti-drone systems, Israeli and Ukrainian officials said. A Ukrainian official told the journalist that a delegation from the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine recently visited Israel to see the presentation of the anti-drone systems.

However, the parties have not yet signed the final agreement. The systems Israel proposed for Ukraine to buy use electronic warfare to jam and down drones.

Israeli officials claim the approval of the export licenses is not a shift in policy because the systems are defensive in nature and do not use any live fire that could kill Russian soldiers. In February, it was reported that Israel is willing to help Ukraine develop a civilian aerial threat warning system and provide the relevant equipment.
