Conflict Overviews
The ATLM tracks and documents litigation related to arms transfers largely linked so far with the armed conflicts and humanitarian crises in Yemen and Palestine.
The Arms Trade Litigation Monitor (ATLM) tracks and documents litigation related to irresponsible arms transfers contributing to violations of international law and protracted violence in various contexts.
