Overview
- The royal decree-law revokes existing contracts and blocks pending licences with Israeli defense firms.
- Defence has annulled 20 awarded tenders worth about €12 million, with more than half linked to Elbit Systems.
- The legal framework denies transit requests for aviation fuel for Israel’s armed forces and bans imports from illegal settlements, supported by Tax Agency location lists and anti-smuggling enforcement.
- Bilateral defense accords leave U.S. bases at Rota and Morón outside the decree’s scope, allowing American shipments to Israel.
- Sumar seeks to remove the exception clause during parliamentary processing and warns it will oppose any operation authorized under that carve-out.
