The lawsuit filed by South Africa against Israel at the International Court of Justice in The Hague drew criticism from the United States on Wednesday.

Raids continued across the occupied West Bank since last night and into early this morning. In Tulkarem, specifically in the Nur Shams refugee camp, a raid has persisted for 26 hours.

Genocide case filed by South Africa significant pressure tool: Analysis

AlJazeeraEnglish

Sultan Barakat, a professor of public policy at Hamad Bin Khalifa University, says that the genocide case filed by South Africa against Israel at the International Court of Justice will be “the most important instrument of international pressure against Israel”. “The way that South Africa has addressed this issue is that they are purely focused on the fact that Israel, by December 29 when the case was filed, has murdered more than 20,000 civilians without achieving any clear goal, in that they seem to be pursuing a genocide against the Palestinian people and specifically within Gaza,” Barakat said. The ICJ works slightly differently from the International Criminal Court in that […]
