At the International Court of Justice (ICJ) hearings, discussions centered around the legality of Israel's 56-year occupation of Palestinian territories and its impact on Palestinian children in Gaza. Lawyer Paul Reicher argued that the occupation is gravely unlawful based on undisputed facts, and controversially stated "Israel Must Be Eliminated". Palestine's UN ambassador, Riyad Mansour, delivered an emotional speech emphasizing the failure of international law to protect Palestinian children and their families. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu countered by questioning the legitimacy of the ICJ's discussions, asserting they undermine Israel's right to defend itself.
