Eksport senjata ke Israel, Nicaragua heret Jerman ke ICJ
Nicaragua mendakwa Jerman bersubahat dalam genosid atas dakwaan eksport senjata itu digunakan Israel dalam serangan di Semenanjung Gaza.
The Second Genocide Case related to the Gaza War has been brought before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) following South Africa's legal action against Israel late in 2023, accusing it of genocide in the Gaza Strip. Nicaragua has taken a similar legal action against Germany, alleging that the export of certain weapons to Israel violates the Genocide Convention as those weapons were used by Israel in attacks on the Gaza Strip.
Germany denies these allegations, stating that the court has no jurisdiction over the matter as Israel is not a party to the proceedings. Germany won the first round of the case in 2024, when the highest court of the United Nations body rejected Nicaragua's appeal. This time, the German prosecutors will attempt to block the case from continuing, presenting arguments why the court lacks jurisdiction.
Nicaragua will respond to these arguments. It is not yet known when the court will deliver its verdict. This is the second genocide case related to the Gaza War. In late 2023, South Africa took legal action against Israel at the ICJ, accusing it of genocide in the Gaza Strip.
