“We support hammas”
• South Africa's presidency has welcomed the recent
announcement by the International Criminal Court's
(ICC) chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, stating he has
requested arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav
Gallant, and three senior Hamas leaders over alleged
war crimes
Opening statements
• Israel, ranked Israel as the 4th most successful economy among developed countries with one of the highest gdps . Rich people
usually choose to go on a shopping spree, however Israel has chosen the path of a killing spree. Which brings me to my first
point. Genocide. the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group.
Judges of the house, its important to note that israel does not claim that they’re doing this, which is strongly condemned by South Africa. The United Nations
has published and credited third-party estimates of the number of those killed and injured in the war. Those include estimates that more than 34,900
Palestinians have been killed in Gaza and more than 1,200 people in Israel. During the year, Palestinian authorities in the West Bank and the
Gaza Strip repressed the rights to freedom of expression, association and assembly. Torture and other ill-treatment were
reported in Palestinian detention centres. Members of Palestinian armed groups summarily killed several suspected
“collaborators”. In Gaza, death sentences were passed and executions were carried out.

• The oppositions claims that they’re intention is only to “kill the hamas”. The why shoot down hospitals and places where the
normal Palestinian civilians can recover. The strike against Al Ahli Arab Hospital is an utter atrocity. UN experts recently
expressed outrage against the deadly strike at Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City, which killed more than 470 civilians on Tuesday
(17) and trapped hundreds under the rubble. The strike reportedly followed two warnings issued by Israel that an attack on the
hospital was imminent if people inside were not evacuated. What kind of place do these people have to cure them selves? They
have nothing but hospitals turned into battle grounds, to kill more people instead of aid. Therefore, we south africans, We do not
label this as genoicide. We acknowledge it. We foretell it and we KNOW that it is nothing, but genocide.

• Now lets move on to The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, or the Genocide Convention, is an international treaty that
criminalizes genocide and obligates state parties to pursue the enforcement of its prohibition. I do not see a single reason, why this should not be done. Whats
the reason that israel shall not face the consequences of their actions. Why are they given a special privilege? Judges they even rejected a damn ceasefire. The
goal is to destroy Gaza’: it seems. Heartless, ruthless and cold blooded killers.

Why does the Israeli party disagree to this. Do they not agree that people are dying. Why do they not agree that theyre conducting genocide?

Rafah Governorate.

2.The State of Israel shall immediately take all effective measures to ensure and facilitate
the unimpeded access to Gaza of United Nations and other officials engaged in the

journalists, in order to assess and record conditions on the ground in Gaza and enable
the effective preservation and retention of evidence, and shall ensure that its military

another person has said. This indicates they are repeating information which would need to come
from a different witness and thus is inadmissible because it relies on the credibility of another.
• Leading Questions: A question that suggests or favors a certain answer, especially yes or no questions.
• Speculation: A statement that begins to theorize, speculate or create thoughts to which there is no
true or certain knowledge (to answer it). This usually refers to predictions by witnesses that are
unreasonable.
• Irrelevance: When anything is said either as a question or an answer that does not relate to the case,
it is considered irrelevant.
• Badgering: When an advocate partakes in intimidation or interrogation tactics by constantly asking the
same or a similar question.

Closing statements
• The Republic of South Africa returned to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to seek an urgent order from the
court for the protection of the Palestinian people in Gaza from grave and irreparable violations of their rights
under the Genocide Convention, as a result of Israel’s ongoing military assault on Rafah.
• The urgent application follows the escalation of Israel’s assault on Rafah, which poses extreme risk to
humanitarian supplies, basic services into Gaza, the survival of the Palestinian medical system, and the very
survival of Palestinians in Gaza as a group. South Africa contends that the attack on Rafah further worsens the
prevailing situation and causes irreparable harm to the rights of Palestinians in Gaza and that the situation has
changed significantly since the Court’s Order of 28 March 2024.
• Rafah is home to 1.5 million Palestinians. It is the last refuge in Gaza for those displaced by Israeli
action, and the last viable centre for public administration and the provision of basic public
services, including medical care. Since the start of the military action in Rafah, Israel has seized
control of both the Rafah and the Kerem Shalom (Karem Abu Salem) crossings, effectively
controlling all movement in and out of Gaza and cutting off all critical humanitarian and medical
supplies, goods and fuel. Israel has further prevented medical evacuations and has treated
evacuation zones as extermination zones as evidenced with the destruction of hospitals in Gaza
and discovery of mass graves in other major health care facilities in the Strip.
• Therefore, South Africa is calling for urgent interventions and investigations of all actions that continue to
cause irreparable prejudice to the rights of Palestinians, including the use of Artificial Intelligence (‘AI’) for
targeted killings.
• South Africa has therefore requested that the Court indicate the following provisional measures:
1. The State of Israel shall immediately withdraw and cease its military offensive in the Rafah Governorate.
2. The State of Israel shall immediately take all effective measures to ensure and facilitate the unimpeded access
to Gaza of United Nations and other officials engaged in the provision of humanitarian aid and assistance to
the population of Gaza, as well as fact-finding missions, internationally mandated bodies or officials,
investigators, and journalists, in order to assess and record conditions on the ground in Gaza and enable the
• South Africa further requested that the Court reaffirm and seek urgent compliance by
Israel with the provisional measures ordered by the Court on 26 January and 28 March
2024. In particular, South Africa petitioned the Court to urgently reaffirm the application to
the Rafah and Kerem Shalom (Karem Abu Salem) crossings of provisional measure four of
its 26 January 2024 Order and provisional measures 2(a) and (b) of its 28 March 2024
Order. These measures will require the immediate withdrawal of the Israeli forces from the
two crossings to allow for the unimpeded movement of medical personnel, including the
United Nations and other humanitarian personnel and medical evacuees, as well goods
and services that are vital to addressing the adverse conditions of life faced by
Palestinians in Gaza.
• South Africa remains firmly of the view that the necessary condition for the effective
implementation of the Court’s provisional measures is a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
• “We call on the international community, including the allies of the State of Israel, not to
turn a blind eye to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. The gross human rights violations
perpetuated by Israel have scaled to incomprehensible levels of cruelty, hate and extreme
violent oppression. The world must do more to end the persecution of Palestinians,
including that of many innocent women and children.
• In this regard, South Africa is deeply heartened by the protest actions of university
students in the United States and other parts of the world. We are also greatly encouraged
by the adoption of the United Nations General Assembly draft resolution that recommends
to the Security Council to reconsider favourably the application by the State of Palestine
for full membership of the United Nations. The support to this resolution shown by 143
countries is a further demonstration that the world is listening to the cries of the
Palestinians,” says President Cyril Ramaphosa.

STATEMENTS AND ADD
Judges, do you know, even when lions hunt their prey, they glare into
the eyes of the deceasing animal,almost as if they were paying respect
to the dying animal. But the IDF and Israeli mindset is nothing but
worse than the approach of wild animals. Each minute and second of
today, is bound to the decision that you take. Everyone knows, the right
thing to do. Everyone is alert and unblind, as we will not be
brainwashed. This planet was created for us by god, with the intent of
keeping peace. As the palstineouns gather, with honor and glory in
their eyes. I shall quote just them. From the river, to the sea Palestine
will be free.
