19 February 2024

Ahead of the first meeting of the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT)'s Sub-working Group on current and emerging implementation issues, which is being held on 21 February 2024 under the auspices of the ATT Working Group on Effective Treaty Implementation, Reaching Critical Will prepared a briefing paper for delegations with information about their legal obligations under the ATT in relation to arms transfers to Israel, including in the context of the International Court of Justice (ICJ)’s ruling that Israel is plausibly committing genocide of Palestinians and the interim measures the Court imposed on Israel to prevent this genocide.
