Brussels Airlines drops settlement-made halva

Brussels Airlines stops supplying passengers on its planes with halva sesame snacks made by Achva, an Israeli food company based in the Barkan Industrial Park in the West Bank, near the city of Ariel.

According to the Ynet news website, the decision comes following a demand by the Palestine Solidarity Campaign, which claims the products are made on occupied land.

Brussels Airlines says the snacks in question are “controversial,” Ynet reports.
