South Africa has now finished presenting its case against Israel at the International Court of Justice, accusing the country of committing genocide in Gaza. Israel, which denied the accusations, will respond on Friday (11).
Vusi Madonsela, South Africa's ambassador to The Hague, ended the first day of the hearing by detailing the country's requests for provisional measures.
He requested that the measures be considered “with extreme urgency”.
Among the provisional measures requested are:
- That Israel suspend its military operations in and against Gaza
- May Israel ensure that its military – and any associated groups – stop any military operations
- May Israel stop killing the Palestinian people
- May Israel stop displacing the Palestinian people from their homes and ensure they have access to food, water, healthcare and basic infrastructure
- That Israel takes “all reasonable actions within its power to prevent genocide”
