> India’s relationship with Israel is becoming closer as conflict spreads and intensifies across the Middle East. An Amnesty International report says India has emerged as a key link in Israel’s weapons supply chain.

That campaign has left the territory devastated and killed more than 70,000 Palestinians, many of them children.
