Israel unlikely to convince world court it is complying with Gaza ruling: Legal expert

Israel is unlikely to convince the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that it is complying with the court’s interim ruling that it take all measures to prevent acts of genocide in Gaza, a legal expert told media. 

Prof. Susan Akram, a clinical professor of law and director of the international human rights law clinic at Boston University School of Law, said Israel even increased violence against Palestinians after the ruling, which requires it to comply with the 1948 Genocide Convention, killing another 3,523 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip as the overall death toll hit 30,000.
