ICJ ruling on SA's case against Israel

South Africa will learn if its application for provisional measures against the State of Israel at the International Court of Justice was successful. The Court's 17 Justices hearing Pretoria's case accusing Israel of acts of genocide in its war against Hamas in Gaza will deliver an order dealing with provisional measures that could shift the character of Israel's military operations. The preliminary ruling will not grapple with the merits of the broader allegation of genocide.
