Russia says it is not going to supply any more military equipment or munitions to the Palestinians. This decision has been caused by the tense political situation in the Gaza Strip.

The Palestinian government had asked for two non-military helicopters, and armoured personnel carriers to be used by the police force.But so far Russia has not sent the machines, and says it is not even considering sending light arms or munitions.
