Adapted from the source: The Swiss provided significant humanitarian aid during the w:Nigerian Civil War. In 1968 evidence emerged that prompted an investigation into illegal heavy arms sales to Nigeria -- w:Bührle Affair -- and raising the possibility of "Swiss charter aircrafts used by the Red Cross being shot down by Swiss guns".
