Can international justice stop Israel? | Israel’s War on Gaza News


There is growing pressure to hold Israel accountable for its war on Gaza.

It has been more than three months since Israel launched its devastating war on Gaza. Nearly 25,000 Palestinians were killed and tens of thousands more injured.

Many countries have rejected Israel’s actions – and South Africa has taken a case to the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing it of committing genocide.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog was even the subject of criminal complaints in Switzerland.

Meanwhile, Mexico and Chile referred Israel to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

But will any of this make a difference?
