Via Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign (IPSC) Tuesday 1st September, the date that the Central Bank of Ireland was due to renew the Israel Bond prospectus, either by approval or transfer, it appears that no EU state is now authorising the sale of Israel Bonds.
This disruption to business-as-usual for the genocidal Apartheid state of Israel is a huge victory for the BDS Movement and for the global campaign against the funding of apartheid, genocide and war crimes.
This development follows the news in July that Luxembourg had refused to accept a second prospectus transfer from the CBI in May 2026. At present, it is not known whether the CBI sought to transfer the Israel Bonds prospectus to another country and Israel is now scrambling to find a state willing to accept it; whether the CBI intended to approve it itself; or whether the CBI even received a prospectus from the Development Corporation of Israel, the agency responsible for Israel Bonds.
It also comes in the wake of the Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign’s submission of a Communication and evidence to the International Criminal Court asking for an investigation into the alleged role the CBI’s facilitation of the sale of Israel Bonds may play in funding genocide.
As journalist Niall Seargent noted on The Currency this afternoon, “as of today, there is nothing on the public record to indicate that a new prospectus is approved for the upcoming 12 months.”
This disruption to business-as-usual for the genocidal Apartheid state of Israel is a huge victory for the BDS Movement and for the global campaign against the funding of apartheid, genocide and war crimes.
