“BAE Systems 'does not know' if British weapons used to commit war crimes, chairman admits
“Chairman told shareholders gathered at the company’s annual general meeting they were not complicit in war crimes allegedly committed by Saudi Arabia using BAE-made planes and bombs in Yemen.”
Well, something we have learned just recently is that Britain has been using thermobaric bombs in Syria. I am not aware of the manufacturer, but the Ministry of Defence apparently accidentally revealed they are used from drones.
These horrible weapons are like a hi-tech version of fire-bombing in WWII.
They use the oxygen in the air to create an extremely intense force, the pressure alone can crush internal organs.
This is barbaric. No wonder the British press is always going on with security service disinformation about Assad's army using poison gas and "barrel" bombs.
