Amnesty International went after Germany on Monday for dropping its arms export limits to Israel, saying the move could make Berlin legally complicit in genocide and war crimes. The human rights group pointed out that Israel keeps hammering Gaza while blocking aid, making the German government's talk about a ceasefire and stability basically nonsense.

Germany, under conservative leader Friedrich Merz, scrapped the partial ban that started back in August. The decision has legal experts worried about multiple violations, from the Arms Trade Treaty to potential criminal liability under international court rules. UN observers dropped a report the same day showing Israel violated the October ceasefire hundreds of times, with over 300 Palestinians killed.

Amnesty wants everyone to stop sending weapons to Israel, Hamas and other armed factions in the conflict. They warned German officials could face personal consequences under international criminal law for helping enable alleged atrocities.
