INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE TO HEAR SOUTH AFRICA CASE AGAINST ISRAEL

South Africa’s genocide case against Israel will be heard by the International Court of Justice this week. 22,835 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza in the last three months. Pretoria claims the bloodshed puts Israel in breach of the Genocide Convention and accuses Tel Aviv of trying to ‘bring about the destruction of a substantial part of the Palestinian national, racial and ethnical group.’
