'ICJ likely to rule that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza'

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is likely to conclude that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, according to John Quigley, a legal expert.

"I think the court will decide that genocide has been committed in Gaza, given what is happening now, especially in the north, in the Jabalia (refugee) camp, where Israel is trying to force the entire population out of that area...and the UN is warning that famine is imminent," said Quigley, an emeritus professor of international law at Ohio State University.
