As Israel continues its offensive in Gaza, killing over 23,000 Palestinians since the October 7 surprise attacks by Hamas, the International Court of Justice in The Hague will hold hearings on Thursday and Friday in a case brought by South Africa in December claiming Israel’s war against Hamas militants in Gaza violates the 1948 Genocide Convention.
The hearing will focus exclusively with request by South Africa for emergency measures seeking direction for Israel to suspend its military actions in Gaza while the court hears the merits of the case, a process which could take years.

“I want to make a few points absolutely clear: Israel has no intention of permanently occupying Gaza or displacing its civilian population,” Netanyahu said on social media platform X on the eve of the hearing.
