Eight Israeli Defense Firms Participate for the First Time at the Marrakech Aviation Expo
In a significant development, eight Israeli military technology companies are set to participate officially for the first time in the Marrakech Aviation Exhibition, which is scheduled to take place from October 7 to October 10. This event unfolds against a backdrop of ongoing hostilities, with the United Nations' independent international commission reporting that the actions in the Gaza Strip may amount to genocide. Concurrently, there are daily casualties among Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, compounded by rampant settlement activities and the confiscation of land and properties.
This unprecedented participation of Israeli companies also occurs within a Moroccan context marked by persistent protests against normalization with Israel. In recent weeks, various Moroccan cities have witnessed demonstrations demanding an end to all forms of cooperation with Israel. Despite this public dissent, both Rabat and Tel Aviv continue to deepen their official ties, having announced in September the elevation of their diplomatic relationship to the level of embassies, alongside the appointment of ambassadors. Additionally, both nations are enhancing economic and commercial collaboration and have resumed direct flight operations.
