Pentagon’s Inspector General Will Audit Israel’s Use of US Weaponry

  • The watchdog office monitors ‘sensitive defense articles’
  • Audit won’t touch on accusations of human rights abuses

The Pentagon’s inspector general has begun an audit of Israel’s “proper use, storage and physical security” of American armaments, including missiles, drones and night vision devices.

The audit will be conducted under the Pentagon’s enhanced monitoring process of “accounting for sensitive defense articles” provided to foreign allies, the inspector general’s office said in a press release.
