AL-QUDS (Dispatches) – India’s Ministry of Defense has called off an order to buy Spike anti-tank guided missiles from the Zionist regime’s military contractor Rafael, the company said on Wednesday.
The deal was worth about $500 million (368.30 million pounds) and the announcement of its termination came just a couple of weeks before Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is due to visit India. Indian officials had no immediate comment.
"Rafael regrets the decision and remains committed to cooperating with the Indian Ministry of Defense and to its strategy of continuing to work in India, an important market, as it has for more than two decades, to provide India with the most advanced and innovative systems,” the company said.
Rafael, whose CEO will join Zionist PM Netanyahu on his trip, said the cancellation was made prior to the signing of the final contract and despite its compliance with all demands.
