Overview
- Secretary of State for Security Aina Calvo signed the resolution on September 29 to end the award to IMI Systems to supply Guardia Civil ammunition valued at about €6.6 million.
- The decision cites a binding denial by the interministerial export‑control body JIMDDU and the September 23 Royal Decree‑Law 10/2025 that prohibits defense transfers from Israel.
- Interior proposes liquidation of the contract at zero euros, with no indemnity to the company and the return of guarantees totaling approximately €275,500.
- Officials say ammunition supply for Spain’s security forces is assured and the order will be reassigned to a non‑Israeli supplier, reported as a Czech manufacturer.
- IMI Systems has announced legal action over the cancellation, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has publicly condemned Spain’s move.
