The Netherlands can continue to deliver parts for F-35 fighter jets being used by Israel in the Gaza Strip after a Dutch court threw out a case brought by a group of human rights organisations, AFP reports.
The district court in The Hague said that supplying the parts was primarily a political decision that judges should not interfere with.
“The considerations that the ministers make are to a large extent of a political and policy nature and judges should leave the minister a large amount of freedom,” the court ruled.
The organisations, including the local branch of Amnesty International, had argued that supplying the parts contributed to alleged violations of international law by Israel in its aggression in Gaza.
