A Belgian court has ordered a halt to arms shipments to Israel from Antwerp, the EU's second-largest port, as anti-genocide activists seek legal ways to break political inertia.
It ruled that a shipping container of components for Israel's Merkava tanks and Namer armoured vehicles cannot be sent to Israel from the port of Antwerp where it's now stuck.
