INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE TO HOLD HEARINGS OVER ISRAEL'S RAFAH ATTACKS

The UN's International Court of Justice (ICJ) will hold hearings on Thursday and
Friday to discuss new emergency measures sought by South Africa over Israel's
attacks on Rafah during the war in Gaza, the court said.



The measures form part of an ongoing case South Africa filed at the ICJ in
December last year accusing Israel of violating the Genocide Convention during
its offensive against Palestinians in Gaza.



Israel has previously said it is acting in accordance with international law and
has called the genocide case baseless and accused Pretoria of acting as “the
legal arm” of Gaza's ruling Hamas militants.



South Africa will address the court on Thursday after it asked the ICJ, also
known as the World Court, last week to order Israel to cease its Rafah offensive
and allow unimpeded access to Gaza for UN officials, organisations providing
humanitarian aid, and journalists and investigators.

Israel will present its side of the case on Friday, according to the court
schedule.



The war has killed nearly 35,000 people in Gaza, according to health authorities
there. About 1,200 people were killed in Israel and 253 taken hostage on October
7 when Hamas launched the attack that started the war, according to Israeli
tallies.

The hearings in The Hague will only focus on issuing emergency measures, to keep
the dispute from escalating, before the court can rule on the merits of the
case, which usually takes years.

While the ICJ's rulings are binding and without appeal, the court has no way to
enforce them.
