The top United Nations court ordered Israel to halt military operations in the southern Gaza city of Rafah but did not order a full cease-fire.
The top United Nations court ordered Israel on Friday to immediately halt its military operations in the southern Gaza city of Rafah — but stopped short of ordering a full cease-fire. Although Israel is unlikely to comply with the order, it will ratchet up the pressure on the increasingly isolated country. Criticism of Israel's conduct in the war in Gaza has been growing, particularly on assaults in Rafah — and even from its closest ally, the United States.
The case will take years to resolve, but South Africa wants interim orders to protect Palestinians while the legal wrangling continues. The court ruled Friday that Israel must ensure access for any fact-finding or investigative mission sent by the United Nations to investigate the genocide allegations.
