Verfassungsbeschwerde gegen deutsche Waffenexporte nach Israel

Bereits im Oktober 2024 hatte der Beschwerdeführer beim Verwaltungsgericht Frankfurt Eilrechtsschutz beantragt. Der Antrag sowie die anschließende Beschwerde beim Hessischen Verwaltungsgerichtshof in Kassel wurden abgewiesen. Mit der nun eingereichten Verfassungsbeschwerde wendet sich der Beschwerdeführer gegen diese Entscheidungen, die ihm einen wirksamen Rechtsschutz versagt haben.

Er beruft sich auf sein Grundrecht auf Leben und körperliche Unversehrtheit (Art. 2 Abs. 2 GG) sowie auf sein Recht auf effektiven Rechtsschutz (Art. 19 Abs. 4 GG). Er fordert eine verfassungsgerichtliche Klärung, ob die Verweigerung von Eilrechtsschutz – angesichts der erkennbaren Risiken durch deutsche Waffenlieferungen – seine Grundrechte verletzt.

Der Fall macht deutlich: Deutschland muss Menschen vor den Folgen seiner Waffenexporte schützen. Entscheidungen über Rüstungslieferungen sind nicht nur juristisch, sondern auch faktisch von unmittelbarer Bedeutung für Menschenleben – in den vergangenen zwei Jahren dieses verheerenden Krieges ebenso wie heute

Constitutional complaint against German arms exports to Israel

As early as October 2024, the complainant had applied for interim legal protection at the Frankfurt Administrative Court. The application and the subsequent appeal to the Hessian Higher Administrative Court in Kassel were rejected. With the constitutional complaint now filed, the complainant is challenging these decisions, which denied him effective legal protection.

He invokes his fundamental right to life and physical inviolability (Article 2(2) of the Basic Law) as well as his right to effective legal protection (Article 19(4) of the Basic Law).
He is seeking a constitutional clarification as to whether the denial of interim legal protection – in light of the recognizable risks posed by German arms deliveries – violates his fundamental rights.

This case makes clear: Germany must protect people from the consequences of its arms exports. Decisions about arms deliveries are not only legally but also factually of immediate significance for human lives – during the two years of this devastating war as much as today.

HRF and PCHR File ICC Complaint on the Nasser Hospital Massacre: Exposing the Command Chain Behind the Killing of 22 Civilians

(August 31, 2025)

Today, the Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) submitted a formal complaint to the International Criminal Court (ICC) regarding the massacre at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis on 25 August 2025. The attack killed 22 civilians, including five journalists, three hospital staff, one doctor, a civil defense worker, and one child, 14-year-old Rayan Omar Mahmoud Abu Omar. More than fifty others were injured in what can only be described as a deliberate double-tap strike carried out with full knowledge of the civilian presence.

The Hunt for Anas Al-Sharif’s Killers: HRF and PCHR Bring Israel’s War on Journalists to the ICC

(August 12, 2025)

Following the Chain of Command

When HRF investigators began reconstructing the strike, they followed the trail from the moment a drone camera locked onto Al-Sharif’s position to the instant the missile hit.
Using operational patterns, signals intelligence reports, and expert military analysis, the foundation identified the chain of command behind the killing:

– Lt.-Gen. Eyal Zamir – IDF Chief of the General Staff
– Maj.-Gen. Tomer Bar – Commander of the Israeli Air Force
– Maj.-Gen. Yaniv Asor – Southern Command Commander
– Brig.-Gen. Yossi Sariel – Former Commander of Unit 8200 (Israel’s signals intelligence branch)
– General A. : Current Commander of Unit 8200
– Palmachim Airbase Commander – Name undisclosed
– “Black Snake” Squadron Commander – Name undisclosed
– Col. Avichay Adraee – IDF Spokesperson’s Unit, Arab Media Division, responsible for a sustained smear campaign against Al-Sharif

At the political summit stands Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister who presided over—and encouraged—a strategy to eliminate journalists as part of Israel’s assault on Gaza.
