Alstom is a French transportation conglomerate. It was included on the United Nations OHCHR’s list of business enterprises active in Israel’s illegal settlements, based on stolen Palestinian land.
Investigate details that Alstom is involved in the construction and operation of the Jerusalem Light Rail project, directly as well as through its fully owned subsidiary, Citadis Israel, which is the maintenance contractor for the project. The JLR project contravenes international law since it solidifies Israel’s grip on illegally occupied Palestinian land, including East Jerusalem.
In addition, “Bombardier Transportation, acquired from Canadian company Bombardier Inc by Alstom in 2021, supplies cars and engines to the Tel Aviv–Jerusalem railway, which also crosses into the occupied West Bank.”
