International Court of Justice Declares Israeli Occupation Illegal

20 Jul 2024  |  www.courrierinternational.com  |  French  |  International Law

The International Court of Justice declared Israel's occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem illegal, marking a significant stance on a long-debated issue. The court's decision, following a request from the United Nations for an advisory opinion, calls for the end of Israeli settlements and urges global non-recognition of Israel's presence in the occupied territories. The ruling was welcomed by the Palestinian Authority as a historic victory, while Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Nétanyahou and other officials condemned it, some advocating for the formal annexation of the West Bank. The decision, though advisory, holds considerable moral authority and may influence international actions and sanctions against Israeli settlements.
