In its attacks on Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, and Syria "Arabic Post" Tracks 130 Companies Around the World That Supplied Israel with Weapons and Equipment

An open-source investigation by Arabic Post reveals that dozens of companies of various nationalities continue to provide the Israeli army with everything it needs — weapons, munitions, equipment, services, industries, and technologies — used in its attacks on Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, and Iran since October 2023 through the time this report was written.

These companies continue to supply the occupying army with everything it needs to sustain its combat operations, despite resolutions issued by the United Nations and the Human Rights Council over the past two years calling on states to halt the sale or transfer of weapons and related equipment to Israel.

During the monitoring process, Arabic Post found that 131 companies remained part of the supply chain serving the Israeli army from October 7, 2023 through May 2026.

Supply chains do not stop at ammunition and aircraft factories; they extend to dual-use components, services, and technologies — from electronics and telecommunications to software, logistics, and metals — making the continuation of Israeli military operations in the occupied Palestinian territories, Lebanon, and Syria, and the attacks on Iran, resemble a permanent multinational industrial-commercial system.

The investigation drew on numerous open-source materials showing the continued appearance of these companies as direct or indirect suppliers to the Israeli army during the monitored period (October 7, 2023 – May 2026), based on open-source documentation and verification materials (official sources, institutional reports, corporate disclosures, journalistic investigations, posts, and tweets), as cited throughout this article.

In handling the data, we followed standardized verification procedures: checking company names (official names/abbreviations/mergers), categorizing them by nationality and registration location (country of registration/headquarters/parent company where applicable), classifying sectors according to the nature of supply, then cross-checking — especially in cases involving the supply of components or manufacturing parts that may pass through joint programs or multinational production chains.

While most wartime reporting focused on government support (U.S. aid, European export licenses, major deals), or on specific systems (such as guided bombs or air defense), this investigation maps companies across six continents within a single framework, confirming their continued supply to the Israeli army.

The investigation does not stop at the "donor state" — such as the United States — but tracks companies, whether state-owned or private, as continuous supply units serving the Israeli military arsenal throughout this period.

Monitoring is not limited to "direct lethal weapons," but includes the various technologies and services that make weapons function, be upgraded, and accurately target Israel's opponents and victims.

The research also tracked the continuity over time of companies that continue to supply the Israeli army with everything it needs across more than 30 months, covering the expansion of operational theaters from Gaza to other escalating fronts — including Syria, Iran, and Lebanon — through spring 2026.

The Full Company List

Below is the full list of private and government-owned companies tracked by this investigation:

The companies listed above — from 6 continents and 23 countries — form a continuous support network for the Israeli army from October 2023 to the present in its attacks on Gaza, Lebanon, Iran, and Syria.

Support Sectors for the Israeli Army

Arabic Post's investigation classified the companies it tracked into the following sectors (with varying relative weight per sector):

Classification of Companies by Nationality

The data show that American companies are the most represented among those relied upon by the Israeli army — even surpassing Israeli companies themselves — with more than 33%, followed by Israeli companies at 16.92%, then German companies at 6.92%.

The data also revealed that Asian countries such as India, Japan, South Korea, and China outrank European countries in their share of services and technologies supplied to the Israeli army.

India ranked fourth (as direct support) with seven military-industrial companies, while Japanese companies such as Toyota and FANUC Corporation supply armored vehicles and military robots to the Israeli army.

As for South Korea, the companies Hyundai and Doosan supply excavators and heavy equipment to the Israeli army.

Two Chinese companies also supply drones to Israel.

The Highest-Value Contracts and Deals

According to the monitored data, the top four companies dealing with the Israeli army by announced contract or deal value are all American.

Boeing ranked first with the F-15 Israel Program contract to design, manufacture, and deliver 25 F-15IA aircraft to the Israeli Air Force, with an option for 25 additional aircraft.

Boeing also appears in larger / joint packages such as munitions worth $6.75 billion and AH-64E helicopters worth $3.8 billion during 2025–2026.

These figures include announced/potential U.S. government deals (FMS/DSCA) that may be delivered over several years, alongside service and component supply contracts that may be smaller in value but more continuous.

It is worth noting that within the framework of U.S. deals, Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) announcements serve as the official reference for "foreign military sales" notifications.

The U.S. State Department documents that Israel is the world's largest recipient of Foreign Military Financing (FMF) under the 2019–2028 memorandum of understanding.

The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) summarizes that since October 7, 2023, the United States has approved at least $16.3 billion in direct military aid to Israel (with detailed funding channels).

According to the Associated Press, U.S. military aid to Israel from October 2023 through September 2025 was estimated at no less than $21.7 billion.

How Have These Deals Been Reflected on the Ground?

These data help explain how the Israeli army benefited from this corporate network on several levels in its devastating attacks on Gaza, Lebanon, and beyond:

1Guided Munitions and Airstrikes

During two and a half years of war on Gaza, Israel dropped more than 100,000 tons of explosives on the territory and committed thousands of massacres using American and Western weapons. Human rights organizations and global media have repeatedly documented the Israeli army's use of American munitions and destructive guided bombs such as JDAMs produced by Boeing in strikes on civilian homes in Gaza — considering this to constitute violations amounting to acts of genocide.

The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) issued a report in June 2024 concluding that the pattern of using heavy American bombs in several incidents confirms these companies' involvement as part of the operational capability of the destructive machine: strike precision, intensity, and stockpile sustainability for the Israeli army.

Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories, described "genocide as profitable" for these companies, which benefit from continuity and achieve significant market gains — warning that the 2024 rulings of the International Court of Justice and the arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court should have alerted all parties, including companies, to stop transferring or supplying weapons to Israel. — Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur

A UN report published in November 2025 noted that American companies supply F-35 fighter jets, drones, and targeting technologies that enabled the dropping of 85,000 tons of bombs — six times the amount dropped on Hiroshima — on the Gaza Strip.

It also highlighted major tech companies that established R&D and data centers in Israel, using Palestinian data in AI warfare, enabling the continuation of "a live-streamed genocide."

The UN report also notes that major energy companies contributed to tightening the Israeli blockade, while construction companies continued supplying equipment that turned Gaza into rubble and prevented Palestinians from returning and rebuilding their lives.

Even actors that appear neutral — such as tourism sites, major retailers, and universities — contribute to normalizing apartheid and the systematic erasure of Palestinian life, according to the Special Rapporteur's report.

2Sustainability of Systems: Aircraft, Engines and Spare Parts

These companies — directly or indirectly, through government contracts and other channels — continuously supplied Israel with major categories of weapons including aircraft, armored vehicles, missiles, ships, munitions, bombs, AI programs, tracking and surveillance software, cloud databases, and more.

After October 7, 2023, Israel relied on accelerating deliveries of needed munitions and weapon components such as GBU-39 bombs, JDAM kits, air-defense munitions, and artillery shells.

This kind of rapid supply does not merely "produce" a single sortie — it maintains fleet readiness, ammunition rotation, and sensor upgrades around the clock.

3Tech, Cyber and AI Support

The sector covering digitization, cloud services, AI, and cybersecurity occupies a major place among these companies' fields, ranking third with 10% of all sectors. This signals the importance of this sector to Israel: achieving dominance and power in war does not stop at owning the latest weapons and munitions — there are more sensitive and dangerous services represented by AI programs that produce "kill lists."

There are also cloud services that store massive data on Gaza's residents and others, provided by major companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon — all on the list — alongside applications and programs that process data and transform it into a lethal weapon that pursues the population. This kind of support creates something like an operational infrastructure for war: it collects data, accelerates its transformation into decisions, and increases the ability to manage multi-front operations.

4Multiple Fronts and Expanding Theater of Operations

The monitored data show that global companies continue supplying Israel with weapons, logistics services, maintenance, software, energy, and equipment — even as the scope and theater of Israeli operations expand in the occupied territories and the region.

This secure supply network enables the Israeli army to maneuver and modernize militarily under the pressure of high consumption and without interruption, despite its military operations stretching from Gaza to Lebanon, Syria, and Iran.

Israel did not stop at committing a genocidal war in Gaza while facing prosecution by the International Criminal Court — it also escalated its strikes in Lebanon, leading to thousands of deaths and injuries from October 8, 2023 through the time this report was written.

Alongside the United States, Israel also launched a war on Iran, targeting civilian sites including schools and hospitals in several rounds — the latest being the war that began on February 28, 2026, in which the occupying state used American bombs and missiles according to journalistic investigations.

Since 2024, before the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime, Israel carried out numerous devastating airstrikes on Syria that resulted in deaths and injuries.

After the collapse of the Syrian regime in December 2024, Israel occupied new areas in southern Syria using weapons, equipment, vehicles, and munitions manufactured by these companies.

The pattern of operations expanded beyond airstrikes to include ground movements, incursions into the south, and the establishment of new military bases.

In July 2025, the raids reached a more direct level — targeting sovereign sites in the heart of Damascus, including the Ministry of Defense headquarters and the area around the presidential palace — before coinciding with deadly ground operations, most notably the raid on the village of Beit Jinn on November 28, 2025, in which 13 people were killed. By May 13, 2026, the same dynamic continued in the south amid escalating clashes, targeting, and airstrikes.
