At a hearing last week, South Africa asked the International Court of Justice to order an end to Israel's offensive in Gaza, particularly Rafah, to ensure the survival of the Palestinian people. Calls for such urgent measures are part of a larger case in which South Africa accuses Israel of genocide. Israel condemns South Africa's claims that it violated the 1948 Genocide Convention.
