International Court of Justice

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vehemently rejected the genocide charge leveled against Israel in response to the International Court of Justice's (ICJ) decision on South Africa's claim. Netanyahu characterized the accusation as "outrageous" and called on people of decency worldwide to reject it emphatically.

The U.N. Security Council will meet next week over the decision by the global body's top court calling for Israel to prevent genocidal acts in Gaza, the council's presidency announced Friday.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has welcomed the decision by the ICJ, vowing Türkiye will continue to follow the trial so that Israel's war crimes against civilians will not go unpunished.

The U.N. top court on Friday said Israel must prevent genocidal acts in Gaza and facilitate "urgently needed" humanitarian aid into the besieged territory, handing down rulings in a case that has drawn global attention.

The court urged Israel to refrain from any possible genocidal acts as it presses its military operation in the Gaza Strip, but stopped short of ordering a ceasefire.

Concern grew on Friday for civilians trapped by fighting around Khan Yunis in Gaza's south, with the top U.N. court set to rule in a case against Israel over alleged genocidal acts in its campaign against Hamas.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has spoken over the phone with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on the ongoing prosecution of Israel at the International Court of Justice over its massacres against Palestinian civilians in Gaza.

The international community has a historic responsibility in ending the war in Gaza, the Turkish foreign minister has said, repeating Ankara's calls for resolving the conflict through diplomatic means.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, marked a historic precedent on 11 January 2024, as the highest judicial body of the United Nations began considering the claims of the Republic of South Africa (RSA) in its lawsuit against Israel alleging the commission of "the crime of genocide" against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his steadfast commitment to dismantling Hamas, declaring that "nobody will stop us" as the conflict between Israel and the terror group reached its 100th day, according to CNN.

Turkey is providing documents for a case brought by South Africa against Israel at the UN's top court on a charge of committing genocide against Palestinian civilians, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Friday.

Speaking to reporters in Istanbul, Erdogan said that Turkey will continue to provide documents, mostly visuals, on Israel's attacks on Gaza.
