Dutch Defence Minister Kajsa Ollongren has told Al Jazeera that the Netherlands has not transferred any F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel since a Dutch court ruling in February.

“The ruling says we cannot transfer parts for the F-35 from the Netherlands to Israel and since the ruling, there have been no transfers,” Ollongren, attending the Shanghai-La Dialogue in Singapore, said.

She added that the F-35 is an “important asset” for Israel’s air defence, “as we’ve seen when the attack happened from Iran”. The Dutch government appealed the decision almost immediately.

“We comply, of course, by the court ruling”, Ollongren said, adding that another court is “still considering the case” and “of course, we will wait for the outcome of that court”.

Ollongren also told Al Jazeera that “the offensive in Rafah has to stop immediately and there has to be an immediate ceasefire”.
