(June 13, 2025)

On June 2, 2025, the German Bundestag disclosed the level of military support Germany has provided Israel over the past 19 months. The report states that “from October 7, 2023, to May 13, 2025, individual export licenses for the final export of military equipment to Israel with a total value of 485,103,796 euros were issued…. The deliveries included, among other things, firearms, ammunition, weapon parts, special equipment for the army and navy, electronic equipment, and special armored vehicles.”

The Bundestag’s disclosure (in full here) raises serious questions about the story Germany told the International Court of Justice in April 2024 in the pending case concerning Alleged Breaches of Certain International Obligations in respect of the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Nicaragua v. Germany).
