ICEJ War Brief from Jerusalem - featured every Monday

Day 115 of the war in Israel, January 29th 2024

The main story over recent days is the ruling by the International Court of Justice in The Hague that Israel’s military actions in Gaza may be violating the Genocide Treaty and Israel must report back within 30 days on what it is doing to protect Palestinian lives.

Just hours after the Court’s ruling was announced, the United States suspended their funding to UNRWA after Israel revealed that at least 12 of its employees took part in the October 7 massacres.

Meanwhile, the IDF says its battle with Hamas in Khan Younis is almost finished. But no more hostages have been rescued yet, and Israel and the US believe that 80% of the terror tunnels in Gaza are still intact.
