WATCH: International Court of Justice issues ruling on genocide case against Israel
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe International Court of Justice begins delivering its ruling on South Africa’s request for emergency measures against Israel, which is accused at the court of state-led “genocide” for its military operation in Gaza against Hamas.
The ruling can be watched here and below.
The ruling is not focused on the core accusation of the case — whether genocide occurred — but on the urgent intervention sought by South Africa.
Among the measures South Africa requested is an immediate halt to Israel’s military campaign, which it launched in response to the devastating Hamas-led attack on October 7, when Palestinian terrorists murdered some 1,200 people in a rampage through southern Israel and abducted 253 as hostages to Gaza, where most are still held.
