Omar Ashour, a professor of security and military studies at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, says Benny Gantz during his visit to the US will likely ask for more military assistance to bolster Israel’s ammunition stockpiles. “If some sort of a truce happens or was successful, I think what we will see is a bit more of reconstruction of forces, repairing of some of the armoured vehicles and also rearming them to be much more effective in the next round,” Ashour told Al Jazeera. The visit by Gantz, who is expected to meet senior US administration officials, comes as US Vice President Harris called for an “immediate” pause in […]
The Dutch government says it will appeal a court ruling to stop exports of warplane spare parts to Israel. The announcement came hours after Dutch judges upheld an appeal by human rights organisations. They argued that helping to maintain the F-35 stealth jets contributed to Israel’s violations of international law.

Al Jazeera’s Step Vaessen spoke with Michiel Servaes. He is the director general of Oxfam Novib, one of the rights organisations that initiated this court process in the Netherlands. He says […]

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. White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby dismissed the submission, labelling it as meritless, counterproductive, and lacking any factual basis. Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara criticizes John Kirby’s brief dismissal of South Africa’s genocide case against Israel, emphasizing the thoroughness of the 84-page document. Marwan perceives Kirby’s response as disrespectful and lacking diplomatic courtesy, asserting that South Africa and the academic community deserve more acknowledgement. Marwan also questions the US stance on the Gaza death toll, expressing concerns about the intent behind […]
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 […]
