The National Conventional Arms Control Committee (NCACC) is a step closer to being held accountable. This, thanks to a court ruling ordering South African arms companies that have supplied weapons found to have been used against civilians in the Yemen conflict, to be made public.

revealed that weapons produced in South Africa are awash in Yemen and being used by numerous parties in that war.

In so doing, the NCACC violated the UN Group of Experts’ call to cease transferring arms to countries involved in the conflict. In addition, the NCACC’s annual reports indicated that SA had exported arms to other members of the coalition, such as Egypt, Jordan and Senegal, between 2016 and 2020. Navi Pillay, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, former judge of the International Criminal Court and Judge President of the International Tribunal for Rwanda, deposed an affidavit in support of the application and as an expert in international law and UN systems.
