"The world has reacted with anger this week after an Israeli air strike on a
safe zone for displaced civilians in southern Gaza reportedly resulted in the
deaths of at least 45 people, including women and children.
This latest action in the Israel’s war in Gaza has come despite the
International Court of Justice (ICJ) delivering an order last Friday that it
must immediately halt its military campaign in Rafah due to the risk to
civilians.
It appears Israel is determined to defy the ICJ’s order. Israeli tanks moved
into the heart of Rafah earlier this week.
If it continues its assault on Rafah, it would present the ICJ (the UN’s top
court) with perhaps the greatest challenge to its legitimacy since it was
established following the second world war."
