"World Court Weighs Legality of Israeli Occupation in West Bank"

The International Court of Justice is considering the legality of Israel's occupation of the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem, with Palestinian representatives arguing that the occupation violates international law. The court's ruling, while not legally binding, is expected to send a global message. The hearings come amid Israel's ongoing invasion of Gaza, with the U.N. releasing a document citing "credible allegations" of Israeli soldiers mistreating women. Despite criticism, Israel maintains it will continue its offensive until Hamas is destroyed, and an opinion from the judges could take months.
