Canada bans Canadian-made arms from reaching Gaza

Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly announced a ban on Canadian-made weapons reaching Gaza, following a suspension of 30 existing arms permits and a halt on new permits to Israel since January. This policy aligns with a March motion passed by the Liberals and NDP to restrict arms exports. The U.S. plans to send Quebec-made ammunition to Israel, raising concerns among civil-society groups.
