South Africa has formally accused Israel of breaking legally binding provisional measures issued by the International Court of Justice in the case brought against Israel over its conduct in Gaza. Pretoria submitted evidence to a dedicated judicial committee, arguing that Israel's continued defiance of the court's orders undermines the ICJ's legitimacy and international law more broadly. The filing adds to South Africa's long-running legal campaign against Israel at the ICJ, which began with its genocide case in late 2023. The move keeps international legal pressure on Israel amid ongoing humanitarian conditions in Gaza documented by rights groups and the United Nations.
