Israel accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice
Published 2 years, 5 months ago
Description
Today, Israel will appear before the International Court of Justice, to reject South Africa’s allegation that it is committing genocide in Gaza. South Africa is calling for Israel to end the military operation in Gaza that has left 20,000 people dead, and millions more displaced and hungry. South Africa says the actions of the Israeli military are in breach of the 1948 Genocide Convention, an accusation that Israel vehemently denies. In this episode, Shane Darcy, a law professor at the University of Galway and deputy director of the Irish Centre for Human Rights joins Sorcha Pollak to discuss what the court will have to consider in this case.
