ICJ Declares Israel's Occupation of Palestinian Territories Illegal in 14-1 Vote, Orders Reparations
Jul 19, 2024, 02:24 PM
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has issued a landmark advisory opinion declaring Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories, including the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza, as illegal under international law. The court found that Israel's settlement activities constitute de facto annexation and violate the Fourth Geneva Convention. The ICJ also stated that Israel's actions amount to systematic discrimination, segregation, and apartheid. The ruling mandates Israel to cease all settlement activities, dismantle existing settlements, and make reparations for damages caused since 1967. The reparations include restitution and compensation. The court emphasized that all UN member states should not recognize or assist Israel's occupation. This opinion, passed by a 14-1 vote, stems from a petition by the UN General Assembly and is non-binding but carries significant moral and political weight.
