Africa: Israel/Opt - South Africa ICJ Submission Must Spur States to Press Israel to End Its Genocide in Gaza
[AI London] The Republic of South Africa's submission of evidence to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) documenting Israel's non-compliance with legally binding provisional orders issued by the court in the case concerning allegations of genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip, must spur other states to pressure Israel to comply, Amnesty International said today.
South Africa has submitted evidence to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) documenting Israel's non-compliance with legally binding provisional orders issued in the case concerning allegations of genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. Amnesty International has called for other states to pressure Israel to comply with these measures, noting that South Africa's submission is an outlier among states that have failed to take action to prevent Israel's genocide in Gaza.
Israeli authorities have continued to inflict irreparable damage on Palestinians in Gaza, despite the court's orders, by imposing severe restrictions on essential supplies and curtailing humanitarian aid.
