ICJ ruling: UN top court orders Israel to prevent genocidal acts in Gaza but not to end war - BBC News

The UN's top court stops short of issuing emergency measures ordering a halt to military operations in Gaza.

Summary of the ways Israel is still not allowed to do genocide:

  1. Israel must take all measures to prevent any acts that could be considered genocidal - killing members of a group, causing bodily harm, inflicting conditions designed to bring about the destruction of a group, preventing births
  2. Israel must ensure its military does not commit any genocidal acts
  3. Israel must prevent and punish any public comments that could be considered incitement to commit genocide in Gaza
  4. Israel must take measures to ensure humanitarian access
  5. Israel must prevent any destruction of evidence that could be used in a genocide case
  6. Israel must submit a report to the court within one month of this order being given

This was after reading into the official record a litany of evils which they seem to be accepting as undisputed facts.

    That's not what this case was for, it was to establish that there's possibly genocide and that other nations signatory to the genocide conventions must take action to prevent possible genocide.

    Actual charges of genocide will need an investigation and lengthy court process.

    Edit: just to be clear, I mean from the legal sense about "possible genocide" in that it hasn't been proven in a court. The genocide is obviously happening
