South Africa has filed a genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) over the alleged deliberate hampering of food and basic supplies into Gaza. The case has sparked debate and drawn reactions from various countries. France and others have rejected the accusation, stating that it crosses a moral threshold. Mexico and Chile have also referred the Israel-Hamas conflict to the ICC over possible war crimes. Additionally, Indonesia is taking Israel to the ICJ for its illegal occupation of Palestine, and there are calls for ICC investigation into Israeli war crimes in Gaza. The case has raised concerns and drawn support from Palestinians.
South Africa’s legal case against Israel describes a litany of horrors committed against Palestinians in Gaza. Even if the country is absolved of genocide by the ICJ, Israel should be scrutinised for other possible violations https://t.co/7MBY75k6wB 👇
