Food distributions in Rafah have been suspended due to severe supply shortages and insecurity, worsening the humanitarian crisis.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nDespite the ICJ\u2019s order for Israel to halt military operations, the bloodshed has continued, with recent attacks on a displacement camp near UN aid facilities in Rafah reportedly killing dozens of people, including children, and injuring many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Failure to comply with these orders may prompt South Africa to address the issue to the Security Council, which has the authority under the UN Charter to enforce the ICJ’s binding decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We call on the UN Security Council to take decisive action to ensure the ICJ’s orders are implemented, allowing humanitarian aid to reach those in need and enabling thorough investigations into violations of international law. The Security Council must act now to uphold justice, protect human rights, and maintain international peace and security. Failure to do so would further compromise the conditions to sustain human life in Gaza and would undermine global trust in the primacy of international law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
