THE International Court of Justice (ICJ) has announced it will deliver a judgement on South Africa’s genocide case against Israel on Friday.
“A public sitting will take place at 1 p.m. at the Peace Palace in The Hague, during which Judge Joan E. Donoghue, the President of the Court, will read the Court’s Order,” the ICJ said.
The Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO) Minister, Naledi Pandor, will lead South Africa’s delegation at The Hague on Friday to hear the judgment on the genocide case against Israel.
The ICJ said it will deliver its judgment tomorrow on whether it will grant emergency measures to stop the war in the Gaza Strip.
This comes after South Africa approached the ICJ in December last year, under the Genocide Convention, for alleged attacks committed by Israel on Palestinians where more than 20 000 people have lost their lives.
