Palestinian and Dutch organisations have filed a legal complaint against the state of the Netherlands over its alleged failure to prevent Israel from committing possible genocide in Gaza and other violations of international law, Reuters reports.

The case argues that the Netherlands has a legal obligation to do everything in its power to stop alleged violations of international law and the 1948 Genocide Convention by Israel.

The organisations seek a ban on all Dutch exports to Israel of weapons and goods that could have military use, but also want judges to order the country to halt all business with Israel related to its presence in the occupied Palestinian territories, the NGOs’ lawyer Wout Albers told Reuters.

The case is expected to be heard in November.
