the guy that is welcome to the program, the international court of justice in the hague has begun to hearing a claim by nico rog, law that germany is, quote, facilitating the commission of genocide in the gaza strip. because rockaway is arguing that germany is breaching that the national low by supplying arms and other aid foot to israel. for his military campaign in gauze up germany has resolute the rejected nicaragua, his accusations, and as well as also repeatedly denied committing genocide. a wall crunch in its response to hum us october 7th terrorist attacks. nicaragua, his case against germany has to main goals. so holds berlin's military exports to israel and to restart german funding for the u. n's palestinian refugee agency. the
5:02 pm
arguments that germany's actions are in breach of the genocide convention government is taking to onto it, so not legation to prevention. the side with, with respect of international humanitarian law, germany supply of arms to israel is a central pillar of nicaragua. his case, germany is israel, 2nd largest on supply of behind to the united states. accounting for about 30 percent of all is rails with an impulse. nicaragua argues that by continuing to provide these weapons, germany is enabling israel to commit acts of genocide in gaza in the international court of justice is currently examining whether israel has committed genocide in a separate case launched by south africa in bringing this case before the court nicaragua says it is acting on behalf of the palestinian people. i mean, this is a very important case. obviously for out of the stadium brothers. but also for
5:03 pm
the people that make it, i will, as you may have heard of expression indicate where we have a norm's sympathy with the palestinians, with the suffering device to new people are going through. and that's why we felt think we had to do something. obviously the only thing we could have looked into issues the 2 records since it has been one of the few things. i think that i've had some experience with the international court of justice close ties between nicaragua and palestinian organizations, dates back to 1979. when palestinian groups supported this end and this, the guerrilla forces that over through nicaragua has dictated to germany staunch support of israel, goes back to just off to the 2nd world war. the german government sees supporting israel security as a historical responsibility for germany's actions in the holocaust. the lin
5:04 pm
categorically rejects nicaragua has accusations and never did. while at the genocide convention nor international, assuming that directory is not in the gym and he will get its chance to make its case in court. on tuesday the dr. lawrence, he'll call phone is an associate professor of law and a co director of the center for international lowered bristol university and he told us more about the case as well. so, so the low seats alleges germany's responsibility for, for several violations of international law, both in respect of its failure to prevent violations within garza, including its failure to prevent genocide, its failure to prevent violations of the laws of um conflict and its actual supported aid and assist protecting the form of weapons transferred to israel. and
5:05 pm
much of this arise as much of that. the case in the way arises from an earlier case instituted in, in january brought by south africa against israel in relation to the assault on golf in which south africa, religious genocide is, is being committed in concert south and in legal terms. does nicaragua have a case here? well, yes, it dogs and suddenly nicaragua is not that the 1st state or, or, or entity to alleged these kinds of violations being committed in gaza. we, i've had the, the un secretary general make these points, the un committee on the elimination of racial discrimination, a number of un special wrap. the tubs have have like you, that there is a risk of genocide being committed in gaza. the international court of justice stated in january that there is a risk of the reputable prejudiced to the rights of the palestinians to be protected from genocide. i'd even domestic courts have,
5:06 pm
have started intervening benevolence, dutch court of appeal, for example, or did the suspension of um, sales to israel on the basis of a clear risk that they'd be used to commit violations of the law of armed conflict . and so that's quite a lot of clear evidence of serious risk the violations of international being committed in golf. and now why do you think it is nicaragua? whole countries finding this case? yeah, it's a very good question. nick roger is actually of a common litigation before the international court of justice that so, so it's a paid quite frequently before the court. many of those cases concerned its neighbors in, in central and south america. but some have concerned all the states, and in particular, 40 years ago, nicaragua brought a case against the united states. but the us is intervention and supportive of rebel groups within nicaragua itself. and that was alluded to by nick ragas agent
5:07 pm
this morning in the court. it's also the case that this is an example of, of what we might think of as public interest litigation or an applicant state is bringing a case against another state. not assault on the basis of home being committed to the applicant state, but robin in order to protect a particular interest of the entire international community. and that's something we've seen increasingly in the last, last 10 to 15 years. a jeremy says that this case is quote, grossly biased. what do you say? well, as i said before, i think there's a considerable amount of publicly available advocates from burial started if sources that serious violations of international being committed in golf and those violations. i saw that they not only entailed the responsibility of his royal, but they can also entail the responsibility of every of a state in the world for failing to prevent those violations on for aging and
5:08 pm
assisting in those violations. so i actually think the argument on the marriage is quite a strong wife because he didn't see a specific code is one of his lawsuits, germany serving as a scapegoat for the united states as well. of course though, be implications for all the states and the us is the principal arms export to, to, to each row. so an order from the i c, j to suspend. whether this transfers to each route would therefore be it'd be an important consideration for the us as well. but germany is the 2nd principle exporter of, of the trial accounting for something like 30 percent of alms exports to israel. and the obligations being invoked by nicaragua, in this case, clearly relate to the, to the actual acts and responsibilities of germany. so, so i, i think, i don't think this is a thought using gemini as
5:09 pm
a skate good for the us. it's about germany independent responsibilities. thank you very much. low on sale, a call on from the center of international lowered bristol university. thank is wells defense. minnesota of galvan says, be withdrawal of soldiers from con eunice announced on sundays to prepare the troops for future offensive, including into the city of rough off following the droll down some palestinians have now become returning to the homes. but after months of strikes and ground baskets with how moss militants, many are returning to ruins and rubble. this is con units. after months of bombardment, displaced residents have been rushing back to their homes after israel and asked most of its troops have been pulled out of the area. it's a show, a shock. what happened was not small. on my way here in the car, i saw the destruction. it's unbearable. i'm going to my house and i know that it is
