NATIONAL NEWS - As South Africa gears up to argue its genocide case against Israel today, more than 900 popular movements, unions, political parties, and other organisations have signed an open letter calling on states to support the country at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in the Hague.
South Africa has asked the court to issue several orders including for Israel to “immediately suspend” its Gaza offensive; to stop forced displacement; to enable humanitarian access to thousands of displaced Palestinians; and to preserve evidence.
South Africa filed an urgent case against Israel at the ICJ last month.
