The International Court of Justice is holding the first hearing of a case presented by South Africa, in which Israel is accused of committing a genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel has forcefully rejected the accusation, claiming it’s acting in
self-defense.

The BBC’s Diplomatic Correspondent, Paul Adams, explains the arguments presented by both sides and what is the legal threshold for the crime of genocide.

  1. Why is it often overlooked that during the early 1900s, there was a conflict between the British and South Africa known as the Anglo war? In this conflict, the British detained the wives and children of white farmers in concentration camps, resulting in the tragic deaths of 27,927 individuals, including 1,676 men, predominantly those too old to be on commando, 4,177 women, and 22,074 children under the age of sixteen. Despite historical references to this event, it seems to be consistently omitted from YouTube comments. Is this intentional neglect, or is it overshadowed by the focus on Apartheid as the primary historical topic? Should there be acknowledgment and accountability for the actions that transpired in 1900?

  2. Nelson mandela said we as south africans will never truly know freedom until the people of Palestine are free ❤ one world . Ubuntu we are one

  3. Just listen to IsraHell’s own top officials calling Palestinians Amalek all the way down to the majority of the population. For 1400 years Palestinians have been intermarrying with native Canaanites, while Ashkenazi diluted their Semitic DNA down to less than 10% Semitic DNA. The land is Palestinian.

  4. The hypocrisy of South Africa. The 'world' is turning a blind eye to the murder (genocide) of whites in SA as well as immigrants from other countries, black or white.

  5. South Africa is commendable and awesome for standing and fighting for an underprivileged people and for humanity. So admirable to be the #champion of #democracy! I'm just in awe of that country and its people.

  6. Israel has wasted decades in conflict with Palestine. The shortsightedness of its leaders has led the country into a highly militarized state, hostile to its Palestinian neighbours, in the false belief that conflicts and wars will bring them prosperity. On the contrary, it has degraded Israel to a state that uses an apartheid-like policy and mass genocide as justifications for its supremacy. Israel is, in fact, a poor yet a dangerous country, for there is no greater poverty and danger than the lack of vision combined with the lack of ethics, morals and humanity!

  7. Netanzahu himself called openlz for genocide reffering to AMALEK!, he diserves to end up in den Haag and face a life sentence and with him everybody who stated the same and followed his orders.

  8. Did africans citizens & all their ambassadors in UN conveniently forgot all GENOCIDES committed in Africa with their own people from 19th century till today, 2024 & all of you didn't did any kind of help for them.

    I suggest to all of you to search in WIKIPEDIA the following true list that appears at the site about only África and in other places like China, Rússia, SYRIA, turkey……

  9. This looks very very very bad for Israel and their partners. The case is essentially air tight… there is no coming back from this. Hopefully Justice will be served after the atrocities happening these last 75 years.

  10. If any other country would do this, it would be sanctioned and judged completely by media etc. But not in case of Israel.. wonder why.

  11. Not only Israel also Joe Biden en his Zion friends like Sunak who support this genocide need come for this court.

  12. According to Africans proverbs " he that lives in a grass house shouldn't throw a stone" . Am not against what SA is doing but they have so much genocides of their citizens killing fellows black Africans and their government haven't address or compensate their families, so why running to Israel like you care for them when you gave your house to put in order. Africans issues must be address first stop running like you cares for the world and fellow Africans are been killed in your country and you throw a blind eyes to it. Rubbish and hypocrisy

  13. South Africa government are completely hypocritical and cowards. You're running to Israel to fight for Palestinian but you haven't address several killings, burning and murdering of black Africans in south Africa which the families of the foreign blacks lost their bread winners, many families haven't recovered up to date.

    You're the first to run to Israel. What a barbaric government , hypocritical government trying to show the world they care. Rubbish 😢😢😢

  14. 150 countries, 100 Days. Finally one country stands up to make Israel legally accountable for its crimes against humanity.

  15. Don't believe this liar. Israel is defending itself from terrorists that rape, kill and burn people alive.

    Also, they use civilians as human shields to increase casualties and keep weapons everywhere such as schools, mosques, hospitals…

    Gaza beacame an amusement park for terrorists that have only one aim: to kill jews. The genocide is in the opposite way.

    If the Israeli army didn't fight back, jews would've faced the 2nd holocaust as the terrorists killed 1500 in a single day.

    This is a fight between good x evil. Make no mistake about it and don't let them brainwash you.

  16. Shame on the BBC for not live streaming the South African case. However they live streamed the Israeli case. It's clear which side of history the BBC is on.

  17. Africa does have the right to say what Israel is doing is wrong.. Another motherland They will not take the genocide of Israel Killing innocent palestinians..

  18. The South African government is very stupid. why can't they take Russia to the ICC? Didn't Russia destroy and kill Ukrainians?
