    “Amid the Gaza genocide, Farnborough airshow invited Israel’s three largest arms firms. None wanted media scrutiny”

    [..]

    “One [Israel Arrospace Industries] #IAI security guard followed Declassified and demanded to see our media passes so he could ‘report us to the police’.

    Facial recognition software indicates that the security guard, who was not displaying his own pass, resembles a man who has worked for Israel’s version of MI5, the Shin#Bet”
