There has been a whole scandal about this, Spain has been sending arms to Israel while the gov says they're not. In fact this scandal has happened like 3 times already, Pedro sanchez says theyre stopping the trades and theyre caught doing it later, 3 times already. This one is the most recent one, this was reported in Spanish and since it has happened multiple times, i get why it wasn't covered in English media.
