Four Israeli arms manufacturers that have long supplied the Israeli army with the means to carry out such attacks – including weapons, drones and parts for fighter jets, armoured vehicles and naval vessels – are Elbit Systems , Rafael Advanced Defense Systems , Israel Aerospace Industries, (state-owned), and its subsidiary Elta Systems

Drawing on hundreds of pages of export records and company disclosures from India and the Netherlands, this long-read reveals how three Dutch businessmen– Tom Krieckaert, Paul Krieckaert, and Vincent van Campen – play a key role in supplying electronic components to these four arms manufacturers. Operating through an India-based electrical engineering company, SASMOS HET Technologies (SASMOS), they provide components which are vital for the operation of military planes and vehicles.

SOMO discovered the links between the Dutch businessmen and the Israeli weapons industry in the summer of 2024 while investigating Israeli arms supply chains. In this research, SASMOS – based in the city of Bangalore in India – emerged as a steady supplier of electronic components to Israel’s largest arms companies.

Between October 2023 and early April 2025, SASMOS sent components worth an estimated US$ 25 million to the four arms manufacturers listed above.

    This is why Israel wont stop carrying out their Final Solution. They have the support of the West. All these belated public statements by politicians are purely performative to placate the public and minimize legal liability.
