尼加拉瓜指控德国武器出口违反种族灭绝公约

尼加拉瓜在国际法院对德国提起诉讼，指控其向以色列提供的武器被用于加沙冲突，构成对《种族灭绝公约》的违反12。尼加拉瓜声称德国通过武器供应和军事支持"协助"以色列在加沙实施种族灭绝1。德国要求法院驳回该案，辩称尼加拉瓜未遵循适当的外交程序，且案件超出法庭管辖权2。

德国政府否认相关指控。德国法律顾问茱莉亚·莫纳尔表示，"德国自2024年以来未授权任何最终目的地为以色列的战争武器出口用于加沙冲突"1。德国还声称其所有武器出口都受到比国际法规更严格的审查程序2。数据显示，德国是以色列第二大武器供应国，仅次于美国1。在2025年11月至2026年3月期间，德国批准出口约1.67亿欧元的武器2。

这起诉讼是继南非对以色列提出类似指控后，又一次在国际法院对以色列加沙军事行动的法律层面挑战1。南非案的全面听证预计不会在2029年前举行2。

Nicaragua has filed a case at the International Court of Justice alleging that Germany violates the 1948 Genocide Convention by supplying weapons to Israel that are used in Gaza 12. The lawsuit contends that Germany's arms exports constitute assistance and abetting in genocide 2. Germany responded by requesting the court dismiss the case, arguing that Nicaragua failed to follow proper procedural channels and that the case falls outside the court's jurisdiction 12.

Germany's legal representatives stated that the country has not authorized any weapons exports destined for Israel since 2024 for use in the Gaza conflict 1. However, according to German government records, the country approved approximately 167 million euros (about $194 million) in weapons exports to Israel between November 2025 and March 2026 2. Germany maintains that all its weapons exports to Israel and other nations undergo stricter review procedures than required by international law 2. As the second-largest weapons supplier to Israel after the United States 1, Germany temporarily suspended arms exports for about three months in 2025 before resuming them following a ceasefire agreement 2.

This case follows a similar legal challenge brought by South Africa against Israel's military operations in Gaza 1. The International Court of Justice ruled in January 2024 that Israel must take all measures to prevent death, destruction, and genocide in Gaza 1. A decision on Germany's motion to dismiss is expected later this year 2.
