Myanmar seems like an odd gap. A quick search just seems to say Myanmar and Israel have a long diplomatic history and some minor arms sales?

Well Myanmar is run by a military dictatorship that murders, disappears and tortures civillians, and has an ongoing public resistance against it since a few years.

When Iran was ruled by the Shah Israel were best buddies and help arm and train his army and intelligence. Guess what they did: murder, disappear and torture tens of thousands of civillians.

When South Africa was still an Apartheid state, Israel was also good friends with them. Guess what they did...

Yeah Israel is one of half a dozen countries that continued to deal arms to Myanmar after the Rohingya Genocide.
