The International Court of Justice is set to hear arguments on Thursday, on whether Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. • The case was brought by South Africa. • Israel's expected to offer a defence on Friday. • • The case brought by South Africa accuses Israel of violating the 1948 UN Genocide convention, with mass killings, expulsions, and statements describing Palestinians as sub-human. • • Ahead of that hearing, Israel has continued to pound the Gaza Strip with airstrikes. • 25,000 Palestinians, more than 10,000 of them children, have been killed so far. • The UN says Gaza has become uninhabitable. • • Palestinians in the Occupied West Bank have been rallying in support of South Africa's case. • The territory has seen a surge in illegal settler activity, attacks and Israeli army raids. • From the Hague, Step Vaessen begins our coverage. • • Al Jazeera's Stefanie Dekker is monitoring the latest developments from the occupied East Jerusalem. • • Subscribe to our channel http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe • Follow us on Twitter / ajenglish • Find us on Facebook / aljazeera • Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/ • Check out our Instagram page: / aljazeeraenglish • Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile • • #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #SouthAfrica #Genocide #GazaWar #ICJ #UnitedNations #WarCrimes #IsraelWarCrimes #GazaGenocide #IsraelWarOnGaza #WarOnGaza
