In plain language
- The proposal bans the transit of military equipment to Israel through Walloon airports, even if the cargo is not transferred between planes.
- Airlines, freight forwarders, and airport operators must declare cargo in advance and risk cargo inspections or a flight ban if they break the rules.
- For you as a citizen, this does not directly affect your daily life, but it ensures stricter regional oversight of arms flows through Walloon airports.
