Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what reports he has received of the use of components for Paveway II bombs manufactured by Raytheon in Scotland by Israeli military forces during Operation Protective Edge.

The Government takes seriously any reports that British components may have been used by Israeli forces during Operation Protective Edge. However, neither the Foreign and Commonwealth Office nor our Embassy in Tel Aviv have received any reports on the use of components for Paveway II bombs being used by the Israeli military forces during the recent fighting.
