Top U.N. court won't dismiss Israel genocide case but stops short of ordering Gaza cease-fire
By Haley Ott, Sarah Carter

Updated on: January 26, 2024 / 8:55 AM EST / CBS News

In an interim judgment, the United Nations' International Court of Justice on Friday ruled that Israel must take measures to prevent genocide in Gaza, but it stopped short of ordering an immediate cease-fire in Israel's war with Hamas. The ICJ ruled that it has jurisdiction to consider the landmark case brought by South Africa against Israel, and it rejected Israel's request for the case to be dismissed.

South Africa alleges that "acts and omissions" committed by Israel as part of its offensive in Gaza "are genocidal in character because they are intended to bring about the destruction of a substantial part of the Palestinian national, racial and ethnical group."

When Netanyahu falls, Israel’s democracy will need new political realignments
A more centrist coalition government would respect the rule of law, but its ability to advance peace will be far from guaranteed.
