British spy planes are helping Israel find hostages in Gaza

GAZA STRIP, AUG 5 – UK intelligence operations have shifted from RAF to US-leased planes to support Israeli military efforts, with near-daily flights gathering data to locate Gaza hostages, officials said.

  • According to the Palestine Deep Dive report, the United Kingdom government shifted its Gaza spy flights from Royal Air Force planes to private US-leased aircraft, the report said.
  • Amid ongoing conflict, RAF planes have been gathering sensitive Gaza intelligence for Israel, with reconnaissance aircraft flown almost daily since October 7, and intelligence routinely shared with Israel to track hostages.
  • Flight tracking data shows a US-leased plane circling Gaza after leaving its transponder on on 28 July, exposing its routes.
  • British military flights share real-time intelligence on hostage movements with Israel, as reports suggest the Israeli military prepares for a full Gaza takeover.
  • Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has suffered mass casualties amid ongoing foreign support, with critics saying the US may be seen as complicit, according to reports.
