In a groundbreaking ruling, the Brussels Court of First Instance has not only ordered the Flemish government to block a specific container of military equipment but also banned all further transit of military material to Israel. The judge found that Flanders is systematically failing to meet its obligations under arms legislation and international treaties, and even imposed a penalty for each shipment that still goes through. Four Flemish NGOs — Vredesactie, INTAL, 11.11.11 and the League for Human Rights — who brought the case, were upheld on all counts.
