Are actually transporting military goods. This is footage of the plane yellow not tracked it has been loaded with crates at least 20 u. S. Military flights have left this airport in the past 6 months. And when we arrive at the airport we to see a plane. This is one of the busiest airports when it comes to playing such as this one. Is from the same airline and i have been investigating various really is pretty nuts its just in the middle of a traffic junction. There are weapons there are there problems. There is this huge fights that are happening in surrounding it all they need is there the. Flight data proves that the majority of these companies planes from reoccur go to keep u. S. Bases in the middle east. From their weapons can be funneled to syria. This ng the largest pentagon supply of weapons for Syrian Rebels is bulgaria through the e. U. Is poorest country thats a change in fortune. Big areas arms factories fell quiet after the end of the cold war but the wars in iraq afghanistan and syria brought new demand. Factories where we opened a new production lines added to supply weapons to the worlds most fragile regions. We have come to bulgaria to find out more about the weapons the u. S. Government buys for its syrian allies. So what is home to state arms manufacturer v. M. S. That. It is also with frances no we it was killed in june 2015. The ems that has been struggling to modernize and now we use fatal accident wasnt its 1st incident. A series of explosions rocked one of the companys plans in the time before the contract is a rival there were no casualties but production shut down for over 2 months. When we contacted v. M. S. That to find out more its management declined to speak to us. 2 leading trade unionists did agree to meet but did not want to go on camera not just the workers are refusing to talk to us but even the local t. V. Station what we do know is that the workers a. Huge amount of pressure if v. M. S. That fails to complete an order their bonus is a cut was growing International Demand for weapons the pressure is on to supply as false as the company can produce. We follow in the we use footsteps his training partner mike doherty had told us the fatal ammunition was 30 years old and we want to see if we can find out more. Vs average where the training took place just over there its where no real die but we can stop because its a militarized zone. Instead we have to the warehouse that stores its ammunition. Its where the big explosions took place. Were told to leave immediately this. Is really for you to shoot it in case if you insist. We stopped to film in a nearby village instead to expose. Local residents here with fact it by the explosions was so big that some houses in this village had to be evacuated. The local Police Arrived within minutes. They order us to follow them to the station will be a question im threatened with prosecution. It is clear that the authorities dont like any questions about bulgarias arms exports. But one person did manage to proof that weapons. Varian journalist illyana gay tonnes of a. Arrived in aleppo as fighting intensified in 2016. Syrian Government Forces had almost cleared the rebels out of the city. In a desperate bid to defend their positions Opposition Forces responded with a barrage of artillery and rocket propelled grenades. And the Syrian Regime retaliated with air strikes. Hundreds of civilians were killed in the crossfire. The suffering biljana witnessed was on full gettable. It was constant firing. Day in day night. One of the rockets cell phone next to us over a mother a child there were big heads in front of me. A local journalist took billionaire to a house that have just been vacated by the owners for a friend. This is truckers from the giro this is the basement which was used by jihadists to saw huge. A test of weapons this weapon manufactured by a. With a country of origin. When local people realise that i came from bulgaria the 1st question i got was this why are sending quote balls to queue us here in the. After publishing his story an anonymous source directed illyana to a large online stash of hacked documents. Taken together they proved that hundreds of flights had transported weapons from balkan states such as well gary and serbia 2 conflict zones. Many were paid for by the pentagon. At least you have any idea of who the perpetrators are among the papers where and uses certificates a kind of contract between buyer and seller the buyers must confirm they will not transfer the weapons without informing the seller they are vital tool to stop the global spread of weapons according to the documents the and. Special Operations Command but the weapons and that up are in the hands of terrorists in syria. But she says the seller bulgaria bears responsibility to know when garia as a country. Informant that our weapons and up in warsaw and in countries which are on that embargo we should stop our image at their exports. Since their discovery the documents have been verified by international experts. So what is bulgarias position on these exports. The government declined to come and so we turn to the only bulgarian official prepared to speak to us it is possible to say that is the best look at mice in the world stephan board and the chair of the copresident of the association of bulgaria and defense industries. Of this world is possible to destroy tank on political because most of its members export arms to the middle east and he shows us some of the nice Defense Products they have to develop for private and government clients. We want to know if bulgaria is at fault when the u. S. Special Operations Command or socalled passes the weapons on. As a member of the e. U. Bulgaria is required to stick to the arms control treaties many of the contracts are fulfilled with the americans putting so as end user but it is known that the weapons are going to syria if you receive and use it for their country who is with a good reputation. It is impossible to say i dont like to see you sell you this it is not responsible for boy or country it is possible for the country who make this and use it you make the do you or the state who is good reputation after that say. Much the have a job on. The hill is growing evidence that this flow of weapons is having unintended consequences. Analyst have found heavy machine guns rockets and even Missile Systems from bulgaria and romania in the hands of ice. It is now estimated that over a 3rd of all weapons used by the group in syria and iraq women have captured in eastern europe. So are u. S. Arms exports inadvertently empowering the terrorists. In london a group called conflict Armament Research carried out Detailed Analysis into how i still has obtained its weapons. Are allowed im james bevan is the executive director. The vast majority of weapons a marked kalashnikov almost always on the left hand side of the receiver and they have a serial number. 7 spends much of his time in the middle east documenting recovered weapons. Most have been captured by iceland battles from their enemies including weapons taken from rebel groups equipped by the us. To date conflict Armament Research has used serial numbers to trace 40000 items. Is qana transfers have introduced weapons which they didnt previously have access to and thats a positive 1st for the air france attack of a city. This is an r. P. G. 7 launcher designed in 1940 s. But some of the rockets which theyve acquired this tends to be through the u. S. Trying and Quick Program of the tandem rockets which basically converts the 1940s Weapon System into something that can defeat a modern tank so weapon that was supplied by the Us Government may well end up being pointed at u. S. Soldiers yes absolutely serious blowback there are serious buyback. But not all of weapons were captured in battle a significant number were handed to iceland by friendly fighters from u. S. Equipped groups says the missile from an anti tank guided Weapon System its transfer history is production in bogus area gets transferred across to one of the syrian Opposition Forces is then diverted to Islamic State we pick it up less than 2 months after i left the factory door once more its a weapon manufactured in bulgaria by v. M. S. That bought by the pentagon by a private contractor if you supply weapons to nonstate actors you have very little control over what happens to those weapons particularly in a situation like syria. Our request to the u. S. Department of defense for an interview was declined but we did get a statement saying americas Partner Forces are vetted and that the final use of the weapons list checked. Meanwhile u. S. Support for rebel groups in syria continues. And to defeat eisel america has chosen a new ally the president authorizes a partner defense to equip kurdish elements of the Syrian Democratic forces as necessary to ensure a clear victory over isis in iraq or syria. But kurdish rebel forces have their own territorial interests and a new front has opened in a region already fractured by womb. In a recent escalation to u. S. Allies turkey and the kurds have been pointing guns at one another. And more lives are taken every single day. To spread of weapons is a global problem and even more so if exporting countries avoid accountability. It looks ugly it sounds ugly and scares people from americas high streets to mexicos on the world record holder to the side and who controls the other side people in power follows the smuggling route and test the ease of acquiring untraceable weapons on american soil the weapon that was designed for war and it took you about 5 minutes to buy a measure to americas guns arming mexicos cartel on al jazeera congressman are you interested in stopping crime.
