The highest United Nations court docket within the Hague stated Friday that Israel’s 57-year occupation of the West Financial institution and East Jerusalem is ‘illegal’ and referred to as on Israel to stop its presence within the occupied territories, together with dismantling Israel settlements there and paying reparations.

The advisory choice by the Worldwide Court docket of Justice is non-binding and is unlikely to have a lot actual affect on the bottom within the West Financial institution and East Jerusalem, the place the U.N. estimates round 700,000 Israelis dwell.

However the choice was the primary time the court docket had issued an opinion on the legality of Israel’s occupation, and shall be one other blow to Israel’s worldwide standing.

“The State of Israel is under the obligation to bring an end to its unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory as rapidly as possible,” stated ICJ President Nawaf Salam, who delivered the choice for the 15-member court docket. 

Israel Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the choice, condemning its reasoning as “lies.” Netanyahu stated, “The Jewish people are not conquerors in their own land.”

The workplace of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas referred to as the choice “historic” and demanded that “Israel be compelled to implement it,” in a statement carried by the official Palestinians news agency Wafa.

The ICJ is also weighing charges brought by South Africa that Israel’s 10-month war against Hamas in Gazaamounts to genocide, an accusation that Israel denies. It launched its devastating campaign to destroy Hamas after the Palestinian militant group mounted a surprise attack against Israel, killing around 1,200 people according to Israel. The war in Gaza has killed more than 38,000 people, according to Gaza’s health ministry.

Israel captured the West Bank – together with East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip – in the 1967 war against its Arab neighbors. Since then, Israeli settlers – who call the area Judea and Samaria – have built communities in the region which the international community has long deemed illegal.

Settlements within the Gaza Strip have been dismantled in 2005, when Israel withdrew from the southern coastal enclave. Two years later Hamas, an Islamist group, took management of the territory in a short civil warfare with its secular rivals Fatah. Israel imposed restrictions on items coming into the realm, a blockade that tightened even additional throughout its army marketing campaign after the October 7 assault by Hamas. 

The Palestinian Authority, which runs components of the occupied West Financial institution, desires to construct an impartial Palestinian state within the West Financial institution, East Jerusalem and Gaza. The present Israeli administration rejects requires an impartial Palestinian state.

Whereas warfare rages in Gaza, violence has additionally elevated within the West Financial institution, the place Israeli forces have carried out growing raids on Palestinian militant teams, and the place settlers have stepped up their very own assaults on Palestinians.

The ICJ opinion delivered on Friday predates the present warfare in Gaza was drawn up after a request was made by the U.N. Common Meeting earlier than the present battle on Gaza.
