The statement, posted on the official Facebook page of the Egyptian armed
forces’ spokesperson, denied claims in Israeli newspaper Hareetz on Tuesday
regarding arms deals between Israel and Egypt.

The spokesperson’s statement called on Egyptians not to trust the “false
news” that is being published, stressing that all imports complied with
existing arms procurement regulations.

On Tuesday, Hareetz claimed that over the last five years, Israel has
exported military equipment, including hi-tech gear used in combat jets, to
a number of Arab countries, according to a report released by the British
government’s Department for Business, Innovation and Skills. The countries
included Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates.

Pakistan has also denied that its military purchased equipment from Israel.
