that 1st. contract i was able to id the file once received a lot of lot of life in the sand like the. top of the end of it in yemen. if those documents prove to be genuine and weapon seen on the islamic state video in yemen could well be serbian made after being sold to u.s. military contractors our senior correspondent mark asked if explains how the weapons could have ended up in terrorist hands. it's a remarkable trail from the arms factories of europe for the hands of isis terrorists in yemen in the span of barely a year we knew this courtesy of concerned citizens who leaked the e-mails the memos the contracts between the u.s. its contractors and weapons manufacturers and the jihad ists gave it away propaganda real from isis showed in their position 82 millimeter mortar shells
3:03 pm
which the reporter was able to identify who for 18 read the numbers the site if it is production lot for manufactured in 2018 k.v. stands for the arms factory v. for value of a place in serbia where the arms factory is and thanks to those leaked documents it appears the us military purchased a lot for from crusade military factory last year then it was a matter of following the paper trail how those shells were brought transported mog for the afghan army and ended up with isis in yemen report the discovered all this is certain in her findings oh. no weapons of war are. then where. are the claims you've made
3:04 pm
damaging of course is true for the us government that based on these documents that you got hold of how hard was it to get them and how certain are you that they are genuine. i don't that i am right in the beginning. i don't know or the people. were all sent. where or what but i am very thankful them because. they are the. in the sitting government. and on the labor. market a show of this there is the name of the company. there were you know government or worth of. weapons on behalf of the arm and don't think of that so it's not all too. he'd like
3:05 pm
he back to the us government although there is indication that information about the us thank you know that we. were ensured the documents speak for themselves the arms factory made the shelves alien tech systems and contractor for the pentagon purchased $10500.00 of them for $8000000.00 it would transported the bug area coincidentally it was isis fighters were also holding a bulgarian made sold rifles next shipment was flown via silk way west lives and is about johnny airline licensed to transport weapons for the pentagon to u.s. bases next thing we know within the year shells are in isis is arsenal you need question all of this is how and who handed over those arms to extremists there and
3:06 pm
minded the just isis that we've seen in possession of munitions made in but also. the way in syria various other jihad a scoop's remarkable coincidence for them to accidentally stumbled upon all of these weapons reportedly paid for by u.s. taxpayers now we've sent many many requests for comment to the pentagon to its contractors involved in all of this the airlines the basis but so far nothing. pentagon christic yet to give us a comment on the allegations former u.k. army officer charles super gave us his insights on how weapons end up in the hands of terrorists people such as myself and not just me many people since 2011 and before when this was being mooted as we can supply we were told to moderate rebels as they were caught in either libya or syria with weaponry that would help overthrow gadhafi or for example assad it was obvious to those of us who've got
3:07 pm
really any military backgrounds and told that it would be impossible to control where those weapons would end up and indeed much research a lot of it by academics and so on has proved this to be the case again and again are that moderate rebels so-called selling or handing over these weapons to these groups all of these groups can capture them in the field if they have battles or disputes themselves of course it could have been and i don't think this is necessarily the stuff of conspiracy theories it could have been so obvious of course that this would happen that it would end the weapons would end up in the hands of these extremist groups that that was the intention right from the start these are all possibilities. this week south africa's biggest city johannesburg a soul foreign owned businesses looted amid a wave of xenophobic tensions across the country on monday the country's police minister described the situation as a national emergency pulis live reports from a city where foreign a state that increasingly living in fear. kim chippy in johannesburg which.
