is hamas, we've known this for a while icj, icj is yeahson disguise, so sharmin, i know you're very excited about this because before 7 october you told me imagine this long it happens and it happened told me imagine that people will be able to so israel, what i don't understand with this, forest i a palestinian w lives and the west bank i was kicked out of my house, okay what can do and if i am a palestinian what is in the uk for instance and i was kicked out and now in the uk and have my palestinian family with me, what can do? it's more about opening the door here, it's more about like you setting the president, because yes yes you know like when it comes to these rulings israel, the us, the uk, it might as well be toilet paper for them, there's no going to do anything for them, but the president is there and at some point things could change in tell you the kind of the way this works okay, so if you get if file a lawsuit let's say you're a palestinian who had some hectares of land in the west bank that were essentially cut you you were right off your land okay um you have legal

well, what exactly was the icj's ruling? the world's highest court concluded that israel is forcibly displacing palestinians from their lands, exploiting water sources, annexing large parts of the occupied territory by force and is violating the right of palestinians to... self-determination. all the icj also ruled that israel must stop all building of settlements in the west bank and should compensate palestinians for human rights violations in the occupied territories, but what good is this ruling, and which in addition to previous ones, if it's non-binding? well, previous icj rulings have not led to global action against israel. the icj's 2004 advisory. f opinion found israel's separation wall and settlements on occupy palestinian land illegal. well, settlements have not only remained in the west bank since the ruling, but the number of israeli settlers living there has also risen from 250,000 in 1993 to more than 700 thousand in 2023. well, aside from the icj's lack of enforcement. these rulings mean nothing. if third st

well, previous icj rulings have not led to global action against israel, the icj's 2004 advisory opinion found israel's separation wall and settlements on occupy palestini land illegal. well, settlements have not only remained in the west bank since the ruling, but the number of israeli settlers living there has also risen. from 250,000 in 1993 to more than 700 thousand in 2023. well aside from the icj's lack of enforcement, these rulings mean nothing if third states and the international community fail to hold israel accountable. third states must ensure the full and total realization of palestinian people to self-determination and sanction israel's illegal occupation. which breaches international law, well during the same week that the icj issued that ruling, the israeli kenness passed a resolution that overwhelmingly rejected the... establishment of a palestinian state. well, the resolution says the creation of a palestinian state would pose an existential danger to israel. the resolution completely rejects palestinian statehood, even at part of negotiated settlement with israel. this

notes of course that 50 countries testified in february to the icj, almost all of them in support of um uh ending israel's occupation except the handful, meaning canada, the uk, which um, you know, made some... lame arguments that basically their rules-based order, but i mean you know the icj's hamas, we've known this for a while, icj is this guy, social mean i know you're very excited about this because before 7 october you told me imagine this long it happens and it happened, you told me imagine that people will be able to show israel, what i don't understand this for says i a palestinian whs in the west bank. "i was kicked out of my house, okay? what can do? and if i a palestinian, what is in the uk for instance, and i was kicked out and now the you can have my palestinian family with me, what can do? it's more about opening the door here, it's more about like setting the president, because yes, yes, you know, like when it comes to these rulings, israel, the us, the uk, matte paper for them, there's no going to do anything for them, but the president is there, and at some point th

annex large parts of the west bank and all in all are in contravention of international law, so the icj has been examining the issue with a request made uh by the un general assembly back in december 2022, it asked basically for the un court's view on israeli policies and practices toward palestinians as well as the status of the occupation uh so we are going to keep you posted on the outcome and aftermath and uh ramifications of this icj uh hearing uh later for you here on press tv, but now it's time for look at the world news. yemen has carried out a drone strike on tel aviv, as part of its ongoing retaliatory operations against israel over the war on gaza, the strike left one person dead and several others injured, it happened in area near the us consulat office causing damage to it. the israeli regime has promised to respond to the attack that involved using a drone capable of evading radar systems, pressed abdullatif almashali reports from sono. the yemani armed forces have conducted notable drone attack targeting the yafa region, also known as tel aviv, the strike was launched usi

that it is mediating the palestinian factions to come together, particularly in light of this recent icj room, this is really something that i don't think was expected, but then at the same time it was naturally bound to happen with the situation and... pressure building up um particularly when we have the united states as well stepping back, we know this last week, they step back from that gaza pier, which was kind of like a half-hearted effort to try to get aid into the into the region, so this gave a space particularly for china to step up and has been stepping up globally, not just on the palestinian issue to become some sort of mediator and to be able to gather all the factions there, i mean we could have easily seen this thing happen in qatar, but it it's was not as meaningful and i think this is something that's very important that we have major superpower trying to mediate this effort and i don't think china is going to let this die down as something insignificant so that's why i think it's extremely important this happen in beijing and this beijing declaration it does have its c

of events, and the reason why i say that, particularly on the heel of the... international criminal icj's ruling uh, which basically has thrown the entire situation back to what the oic and all the muslim nations around the world have been clinging to is that the 1967 and the illegal israeli settlements that have gone on, all that has to actually empty out, and uh with the palestinians coming together, this was actually one of the excuses that was often used uh by other parties who wanted to break it up, that... "there's not a unified front, you have hamas and gaza, and you have in the west bank, the plo, this always became a fractured point that actually caused issues and people said, who do we talk to? now for all them to come, and importantly here, this is very important point, in china, so china has stepped up to bring a new kind of angle to this game with mediator, now china is possessing itself in a way that it is mediating the palestinian factions to come together, strictly in light of this recent icj ruin, this is really something that i don't think was expected, but then at the s

i think it's important, especially in conjunction with the international icj ruling um uh that included a statement that israel is an apartide state uh and that all the territories that we now call occupied palestinian territory need to be uh evacuated by by israel and its settlements um so what these two things really together imply is is the absolute final death of the two-state solution and its peace process which as we know um are actually about producing uh peace or two states um and and and not any kind of solution whatsoever uh, so by implying that there will be no negotiations over territory, which is the the two state framework, the peace process framework, as the icg has declared, and now to have china intervening on on palestinian unity, this is really important because it it it gets us out of the straight jacket, or it gives us road map, the possibility, it opens the door to... getting out of the straight jacket of two-state solution um and because that talk really the talk about the talking point that we must have that there's other solution except for two-state solution re

icj's ruling uh dr. shah, that israel is illegally occupying palestinian land, um, it has caused no change really in in israel's uh behavior, what is the wider point point here, because that's the latest ruling by the icj, in addition uh to the plausible genocide case as well as the icc seeking arrest warrants for netanyahu and his war minister galant. i think... in this anick anechic world, i suppose it's very important to see when you have institutions like these um, and when they make their own research based and whatever is happening, when they make these statements and they finally issue a warrant uh, you know, for netanyahu for his war um against crimes, i think it's important to see that it does make lot of difference um, perhaps not uh on the level where we want it really to work. but as it's coming out as as more and more international organizations, especially amnesty international just recently also made um the same point really, so i think it does make lot of difference with these organizatio

seriously, that is l exactly what the icj ruled.ts a permanent occupation, permanent subjugation. permanent control. he says he doesn't want to repopulate gaza, contrary to some of the accusations from some quarters. he is saying that it should be ruled, it could be ruled by a plo. but with israeli security control. that it could be ruled by a plo. but with israeli security control.— israeli security control. that is known as _ israeli security control. that is known as -- — israeli security control. that is known as -- none _ israeli security control. that is known as -- none of- israeli security control. that is known as -- none of his - israeli security control. that is - known as -- none of his business. known as —— none of his business. the only business he has is to end israel's unlawful illegal military occupation and the illegal settlements. and we will decide that the palestinian people... none of his business, who rules... what the palestinian people... none of his business, who rules... what is his business, who rules...

icj, which is specifically with respect to what's happening in gaza, genocide there and the humanitarian situation there. however, we do know that all settlements are illegal in the occupied territories, according to a un resolution. still, there are no legal proceedings there. this is basically why i use the word turn a blind eye to these uh land grabs. do you still believe that it's not the proper phrase to use? i do, i do. i still, i think the canadian government, there was um... decision or the general assembly about year and a bit ago, year half ago uh put forward a resolution calling on the international court of justice before the you know horrors and guys over the past nine or 10 hours uh calling on the international court of justice to render an opinion about state's responsibility responsibilities visa v israel's uh illegal uh colonies war crimes in the west bank the canadian government went and uh actually sent a um letter to the icj requesting the icj uh refuses to fulfill what the general assembly of the un voted by the vast majority member states to render its legal opinion

the un general assembly in 2022 passed a resolution calling on the icj to give an opinion on continued illegal israely occupation of the palestinian land. the assembly voted 87. to 26 with 53 abstentions on the resolution with western nations split, but with virtually unanimous support in the islamic world. russia and china also voted in favor of the resolution. rulings by the hag-based icj, also known as a world court, are binding, but it has no power to enforce them. protester interrupts us president joe biden's campaign speech by chanting slogans in favor. palestine, i know. biden was speaking in the city of detroit when the protester interrupted the event by shouting free palestine. biden supporters tried to overcome the demonstrator by chanting campaign slogans. biden had previously faced anti-war protesters interrupting his speeches. but this time had a different town saying that he understands the protester and that the war must end. earlier in january anti-war protesters interrupted the us presidents more than dozen times a campaign rally. american university campuses have been

living there has also risen from 250,000 in 1993 to more than 700 thousand in 2023. well aside from the icj's lack of enforcement, these rulings mean nothing if third states and the international community fail to hold israel accountable, third states must ensure the full and total realization of the palestinian people to self-determination and sanction israel's illegal occupation which breaches international law. all during the same week that the icj issued that ruling, the israeli connesse said passed a resolution that overwhelmingly rejected the establishment of a palestinian state. well, the resolution says the creation of a palestinian state would pose an existential danger to. israel, the resolution completely rejects palestinian statehood, even as part of negotiated settlement with israel, this resolution represents a rejection of peace with palestinians and an official declaration of the death of the oslo agreement. now, the oslo accords were supposed to bring about palestinian self-determination in the form of a palestinian state alongside of israel. in essence, the two... state solu

any interest in any kind of peace treaty, however i do think that things are changing globally, the icj ruling at the moment, that the recent one, i think this was monumental and it is likely to have impact going forward, because what it has basically ruled is that the palestinian resistance is actually legitimate, whereas the occupation of gaza has no... right, israel has no right to defend itself, so if you break down the judgment of what really happened, what we've been saying for the past 76 years has actually now been said by icj, and i think hopefully there will be some kind of action based on that, in the meanwhile, i think we continue to see that in the capitals around the world, people are not becoming becoming immune to the suffering, you see people are still protesting, and if you look at the elections around the world, the impact is now beginning to be seen, we saw... a change in france, we've seen some sort of a change in britain, and of course the us is insambles, you know, i mean, you can see the vacuum of leadership and the mess up that is happening over there. now, of c

the icj announced that it will issue the advisory opinion on the legal consequences of israely actions in occupied palestinian territories, including east alqs on july 19. the un general assembly in 2022 passed the resolution, calling on the icj to give an opinion on the continued illegal israeli occupation of the palestinian land. the assembly voted 87-26 with 53 abstentions on the resolution with western nations split, but with virtually unanimous support. islamic world, russia and china also voted in favor of the resolution, the rulings by the base icj, also known as the world court, are binding, but it has no power to enforce them. the protester interrupts us president joe biden's campaign speech by chanting slogans in favor of palestine. i know. find was speaking in the city of detroit when the protester interrupted the event by shouting free palestine. byden supporters tried to overcome the demonstrators by chanting campaign slogans. biden had previously faced anti- protesters interrupting his speeches, this time had a different tone saying that he understands the protester, that

requesting that the icj uh refuses to fulfill what the general assembly of the un voted by the vast majority of member states to render its legal opinion on state. possibility so like the level of of um complicity of a country like canada in in these in these war crimes is is startling also you look at if you look at back in 2020. the international criminal court, the the previous chief prosecutor began looking at israel's uh war crimes, which of course include the settlements in in the west bank, and the king government's reaction was to send letter to the icc uh uh with a basically a threat that canada is a big funder to the icc and maybe will cut your money if you start investigating israel's uh israel's war crimes, so so the role of a country like canada, us is even even greater, also there's all these registered charities in canada. that are supporting uh projects in the occupied uh uh west bank uh so they getting financed the subsidized but they can government when individuals give donations to these or these groups they're being they're receiving tax credit so being subsidize

i can hear you, the icj ruled about how israel's occupation of palestinian lands is illegal. um, curious if you had a chance to talk to palestinians, get a reaction. from them on what the icj has said and the ruling that they have given? yes, israeli occupation always killing random people in the street, raiding several houses, destroyed the street under destruction and the you know israeli occupation went together of the resistance in the west bank. thank you so much for that, we do appreciate it. there talking to us from genene, thank you. moving on, israel once again taking to the streets and to demand prime minister benjamin netanyahu agreed to deal with hamas to secure the return of captives in gaza. some of the demonstrators were seen covered in fake blood sitting on the ground opposite to policeman on horseback. security forces tried to dispose the protesters. israelys demanding that netanyahu not fly to the us when a deal can be potentially reached. he is expected to make a statements a joint meeting of congress on wednesday in washington, anti-nethanial rallies in te

the top un court will convene in the hague later on friday to announce the opinion, the icj has been examining the issue at a request made by the un general assemble in december 2022. it asked for the un court's view on israel policies and practices toward palestinians as well as legal status of the occupation. if the icj issues an advisory opinion, it will then go to the un general assembly, then the assembly will decide how to respond, which could include adopting a resolution. the expected advisor opinion is not legally binding, yet it will carry significant political weight. the lebanese resistance movement as fired rocket. at abbirim settlement in northern israel, hezbula says the settlement was hit for the first time since fighting broke out with israel early october, the movement has time and again said its anti-israel operations aimed to support palestinians in gaza and are in response to the regime's attacks on southern lebanon. press mariam sal in beirot tells us more. the israelis definitely crossing the boundaries when it came to targeting areas where there were civilians
