Legal issues

Germany, Israel’s second-largest arms supplier, faced lawsuits over its deliveries:

♦️ In March 2024, Nicaragua asked the ICJ to order Germany to stop arms aid to Israel, citing risks of genocide and violations of international law. The request was rejected.

♦️ In June 2024, Gaza Palestinians asked a Berlin court to halt German arms export licenses. The requests were rejected.
