Government ministers have approved NZ military and intelligence support for Israeli war crimes.

Judith Collins approved recent Rocket Lab launches of geospatial intelligence satellites for BlackSky launched from Måhia.

The satellites provide high resolution images to the IOF used to strike civilians and infrastructure in Gaza.

Collins allowed these launches in full knowledge of these circumstances.

Now her actions, and those of her fellow Ministers Luxon, Seymour and Peters are all the subject of a complaint to the international Criminal Court for war crimes.
