Hearings have taken place today at the International Court of Justice, where Israel stands accused of committing genocide in Gaza.

But what is genocide and why is South Africa taking Israel to court? 🧵👇
South Africa is arguing Israel is breaching the UN convention on genocide by "killing Palestinians in Gaza, causing them serious bodily and mental harm, and inflicting on them conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction" Image
Israel has described the lawsuit as a "despicable and contemptuous exploitation" of the court Image

Israel said Gazans could flee to this neighbourhood - then it was hit.

Using on-the-ground footage, satellite imagery and mapping software, Sky News found that a building in Deir al Balah was hit on 5 December, one day after Israel told civilians they could flee to the city.
Responding to our findings, the IDF did not deny it was responsible for the blast.

Two independent experts told Sky that the extent of the damage, size of the rubble, lack of burn damage and apparent precision of the strike were consistent with an airstrike, not a misfired rocket.
Without access to the weapon remnants Sky News cannot say for sure who was behind the blast.

Israel has said it was striking military targets in Deir al Balah that day. Sky has not seen any reports of other groups firing rockets in the area at that time.
