LIVE: ICJ interim ruling in South Africa's genocide claim against Israel in Gaza

Watch as the International Court of Justice (ICJ) delivers its ruling on the provisional measures requested by South Africa in its genocide case against Israel. The court is not expected to provide a final ruling on whether Israel is guilty of committing genocide in its war on the Gaza Strip but instead will be ruling on the nine provisional measures requested by South Africa in its case. Most prominently, South Africa requested an immediate suspension of military operations “in and against” the Gaza Strip, and called on Israel to refrain from impeding the delivery of humanitarian aid into the Palestinian enclave. You can watch the first day of hearings here where South Africa made its case on 11 January, and the second day where Israel defended itself against genocide claims on our YouTube channel. More than 25,000 Palestinians have been killed in the ongoing war in Gaza, including more than 10,000 children. Thousands more are missing under the rubble and presumed dead.
