Table after execution script

Hello,

I am testing "nftables" and get a kernel crash while deleting a table.
The first problem arose when I try to "flush" a table before executing a script
file :
ENTREE.dat:5:1-2: Error: Could not process rule: File exists
table ip NIV_UN {
^^
ENTREE.dat:5:1-2: Error: Could not process rule: File exists
table ip NIV_UN {
^^
The script begins with :
flush table NIV_UN;

table ip NIV_UN {
set PORT_TCP_IN { 
        type inet_service
include "xxxxx.set"
    }
............

If I "manually" flush the table with "nft flush table NIV_UN" all is good and
the content of the table is flushed, but remains in a state where no modify is
possible.
The command "nft flush table NIV_UN" works and the result seems OK (cf FILE 1),
but if I try to re-execute the script I get the same error.
If I try to delete the table with "nft delete table NIV_UN" I get a kernel
crash which is not visible in the logs, the only way I found is to take a photo
of the screen ...

Files attached : NFTLIST.txt : right after execution
                 NFTLIST_FLUSH.txt : after execution a "flush"
