In its decision issued this evening, Friday, the International Court of Justice rejected an urgent request submitted by South Africa to take further measures against Israel, especially in light of the threat of a military operation in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
The international justice’s decision stated, “The developments, especially in Rafah, would greatly increase what is considered a humanitarian nightmare with untold consequences,” noting that “the dangerous situation in Gaza requires immediate implementation of the measures referred to in the order issued on January 26.” .
It added, "Israel remains obligated to comply with the Genocide Convention, including ensuring the safety of Palestinians in Gaza."
