At the UNʼs highest court in Hague South Africa took a big step by giving judges a super-detailed file (which is almost 5000-pages long) about the Gaza situation. The document isnt public yet but it has lots of info about whats happening there
President Cyril Ramaphosa made clear what South Africa thinks: their legal team put together proof that shows a “special intent to commit genocide.“ The whole thing is part of a bigger court-case where South Africa is trying to show that Israel did some really bad stuff in Gaza; even though the document is huge the court wont show it to everyone right now
The legal-teams work represents a key moment in this international case – South Africa picked the International Court of Justice (which is the UNs main court) to look at everything thats going on. The court will use all this info to figure out if thereʼs enough proof to move forward with South Africas claims
