Ten pro-Palestinian groups sue Dutch government over arms exports to Israel, citing genocide concerns.

Ten Pro-Palestinian organizations have filed a lawsuit against the Dutch government, demanding the halt of arms exports to Israel and trade with the occupied Palestinian territories, citing potential violations of the 1948 Genocide Convention. The groups argue that the Dutch government is neglecting its legal duty to prevent genocide in Gaza. The Dutch government denies these claims and argues that it adheres to European arms export laws. The lawsuit comes amid escalating legal actions against Israel, including recent arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court. The Dutch court will rule on the case on December 13.
