Israel has failed to convince the ICJ that the measures it is taking to minimize the effect of its military operations on the civilian population are adequate.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the Rafah strike “a tragic mistake” that is being investigated.
The ICJ has ordered Israel to limit its military operations in Rafah, Gaza, amid accusations of genocide, increasing Israel’s diplomatic challenges.
The discussion will be “based on the new proposals that came up at the meeting” held in Paris over the weekend.
"We are not going to fall into provocations. The video is scandalous and execrable," Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares told a news conference in Brussels.
The IDF continues to maneuver deep into Rafah to locate underground structures, weapons centers, launch sites, and terrorists and to increase control along the Philadelphia corridor,
UN envoy Francesca Albanese asserted that the only way Israel would cease its campaign to uproot Hamas from Rafah is if it were forced to stop.
"The reason there isn’t a pause in the fighting is because Hamas turned down a very generous hostage deal from Israel," a UK foreign ministry spokesperson said late on Friday.
IDF announces investigation into social media posts • White House again warns Israel against Rafah operation • ICJ rules against Gaza operation
Israel provided the ICJ with evidence proving that it has done its best, way beyond the requirements set by international law, to keep civilians out of harm’s way.
