Israel’s response was published on the day that the U.N. food agency said that “famine is imminent” in northern Gaza, where 70% of the remaining population is experiencing catastrophic hunger, and that a further escalation of the war could push around half of Gaza’s total population to the brink of starvation.
The food agency’s statement came less than two weeks after South Africa urged the world court “to do what is within its power to save Palestinians in Gaza from genocidal starvation.”
Israel also said in its response that it is “doing a great deal to alleviate such suffering in these very challenging circumstances.”
No date has been set for judges to rule on the South African request.

Ie; bombing all the civilians out of existence. Can’t starve to death if you’re murdered first.
That’s what makes them such a moral army! /s
The savagery and deceit coming from Israel is just mind blowing. “We don’t want any official rulings taken to keep people from starving, which by the way isn’t our fault”? Hey Israel, no one is buying your lies - either (most) folks oppose your blockades or they support it because of bloodlust but either way everyone knows.
Lucky for israel the ICJ never orders them to do anything. Stern words is all that useless court has to offer.
They can displace 1.5 million Palestinians but somehow they cannot displace 12 extremists with banners that block 300 aid trucks from entering Gaza
Interesting thing about those extremists - most of them speak english with perfect american accents.
I wouldn’t even be surprised. We have some really shitty people. But they aren’t super strong or anything. I promise the Israeli police can move them.
Instead of working with Aid agencies in good faith they’re asking the war crimes court to look away.
Can we stop sending them weapons yet Joe?
Joe will wag his finger until the election is over then go back to not caring for 4 years.
Establishment democrats are all scum taking advantage of proud idiots.
What I read is we are bombing so hard that no truck can go in
Fuck Zionists.
They are the new Nazis.
Nazisreal. (mods hate it when we say this because they’re biased)
The country which keeps on pulling the holocaust victim card, doing the same as the nazies, making them worse then the nazies as they should have learned from it to make sure it would never ever happen again.
