Israel-Gaza: South Africa calls for immediate halt to Israel's Rafah operation | BBC News

- South Africa has asked the International Court of Justice to order an immediate halt to Israel's incursion in Rafah.
It says as well as direct military attacks, Israel is ‘starving’ Palestinians in Gaza by obstructing access to food and medicines.
Israel has insisted it is acting in accordance with international law, dismissing the claims as “baseless blood libel”.
The country launched a military campaign on Gaza to destroy Hamas in response to the group's cross-border attack on southern Israel on 7 October, during which about 1,200 people were killed and 252 others were taken hostage.
More than 35,230 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's Hamas-run health ministry.

They were kind enough to give them refuge in their own homes and land during WW2.
They stabbed them in the back whilst screaming in pain demanding their seen as victims.
This is soo true.
Yes u are absolutely right.
God gave Israel two the jewish people 2000 years ago and they were their since then after world war two Britain gave up the land so the Jews would have where to be
Fake Hamas propaganda 😂
@@aktlr-qf2vt I like it now anything bother the zionst says its hummus falafel Propaganda. My friend everyone knows these guys came to Palestine homeless. Thank you my friend.
Who's responsible for making almost all international institutions worthless? Have we forgotten all the pretexts set before WW2?
Are extreme greed, war economy and dehumanizing a certain sections of the world now the norms of the strongest nations of the world?
Ask Putin.
Mind Begs the Question:
- Dehumanizing a group of people as Rats is Fascist
- Dehumanizing a group of people as Human Animals is Not Fascist?

"Since its establishment, Israel has engaged in brutal oppression of the rights of Palestinians. Thousands of Palestinians are imprisoned, beaten and tortured; children are taken from their beds and beaten by soldiers who are armed to the teeth." ~ Israeli activist miko Peled.
After all da evidence of ISRAEL Brutal treatment 2 Palestinians, yet still da *IDF, U.S, and U.K, government* still repeating da useless Lie dat da *IDF is da Most Moral Army on Earth* Like dey deliberately making fun out of everyone with dis useless statement.
Since its establishment, Israel has had to contend with hundreds if not thousands of terrorist attacks and three wars from its neighbours.
Any actions by the IDF and security forces have been against those who seek to harm Israeli citizens, in other words, 'in self-defence'.
Jacob Cohen. Human being.
@@jacobcohen9205You should be a politician you really know how to twist facts 😂
There was a sign that said "I ❤️ gaza" at the entrance. Seems like an odd choice for an open air prison!
😄
Black September, when Jordan with help from other Muslims killed 25,000 Palestinians in the West Bank that they had invaded and made a province of Jordan for nearly 30 yrs. Jordan fought and killed Palestinians for nearly 30 yrs in numbers dwarfing anything Israel has done.
Israeli president said in the beginning that there's no uninvolved civilians in Gaza
Israel finance minister said that returning the hostages is not a priority
Israeli prime minister said in 2019 that funding hamas is his strategy
It was never about the hostages it was never about dismantling hamas it's just meaningless revenge
Lying sack of shit. The president of israel and the finance minister never said that. I challenge you to provide quotes.
Israel themselves exposing all their lies 2 da World, I wonder if they're aware of it.
All palestinians are complicit. Where are anti-Hamas demonstrations and protests?
@@davidcooks2379shame on you
WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN SMOKING
Wow BBC is covering and it’s not Israel speaking
Truly surprising!
It's got so far beyond the point where anyone can seriously deny or turn a blind eye to Israel's crimes any more that they don't really have a choice
I'm shocked 😳
No Rules for US and Israel
Unwilling to accept?? more like knowing yet not acknowledging, knowing yet ignoring, knowing yet still supplying the weapons
Please, make our earth peaceful and safe for children
So proud of South Africa for actually taking action against Israel and their genocide to the Palestinians
Just wish they can be as organised at our own issues as they are showing off to the world
And I wonder how much this trial cost our tax payers
Nah, Iran is paying the ruling party ANC
Because you are a simpleton, and thus the target for meaningless gestures.
So biased, no wonder people don't listen to the bbc anymore.

Why doesn't South Africa condemn what is happening in Sudan?
Why doesn't the UK condemn or ACT for Sudan?
And Yemen, and China and Syria and Iraq and.... there is a very long list.
Why not both you idiot.
Those ignorant of history will remain ignorant without educating themselves. South Africa & Palestine have a long history of shared experiences. Nelson Mandela once said there is no freedom without the freedom of Palestine.
Don't you distinguish between a civil war and the genocide of a people by colonial powers?
ICJ: Israel replied to ANC false accusations: 700 tunnels were identified in Rafah alone, including 50 to Egypt. Kidnapped are being held in the city…
"Repeating a lie over and over does not become the truth. The war is not genocide, if the abductees are released and Hamas lays down its weapons - it will end.".
Why didn't Israel accept the agreement negotiated by Egypt (which Hamas accepted) that called for a ceasefire and the return of the hostages?
@@Antonella134679 Egypt negotiated with Qatar, and Hamas accepted.
What about the other side?
South Africa has aligned itself with all the worst countries in the world. This vexatious lawfare undermines the credibility of the ICJ.
Well done BBC for covering this .
Icj is useless
Take Sudan and Rwanda to the ICC as well.
Double standards
All in due time because SA is going against the western hemisphere and we have all seen what happens when you stand up to the establishment.
For what? Those are civil wars. and rwanda? remind us whats going on in Rwanda? War?
They should especially given how the West is using both of these conflicts to gain control of rare earth metal deposits. Why do you think the UK is trying so hard to send their asylum seekers to Rwanda? Collusion
And America, Bush and Blair.
@KC-cb7ov South Africa are a bunch of hypocrites who attack African migrants who work in South Africa. They also supply arms to Russia whom has also committed war crimes.
South Africa is known to be anti Jewish and anti Israel, they are also being used by Russia and China as a proxy to keep the UN occupied whilst they commit horrific crimes against humanity themselves.
I do not understand. Do they even have the power to stop Israel or is
this all just talk?
Thank you bbc for showing the case.
Shame on mainstream media not covering the trail
They're only broadcasting it bc they got so much criticism for not broadcasting the SA side last time
Remote controlled courts
South Africa, you have a million problems on your very own doorstep. Time to concentrate on helping your poor people, and not wasting money on fighting other peoples battles. You are becoming a laughing stock by choosing the extreme left. Grow up!

What can you do with those rogue states where warlords rule.
Facts.
What every judge can determine with certainty: the person who starts the fight is also guilty of harming him, the court in The Hague court is unable to understand.
What the fcuk happened to BBC? It used to at least try to be impartial, but the constant distortion of this situation and peddling of the IDF narrative is insane
Nobody listening to south Africa 😂
I agree with South Africa.
I don't
South Africa need's to worry about it's own country, one of the worst crime rates in the world.
So they should just turn a blind eye should they? Be a bystander to countless atrocities and do nothing like everyone else? Have you perhaps considered the possibility that they can send a legal team to the ICJ AND tackle problems in their own country?
@@strikereureka5081 Perhaps other countries are turning a blind eye because of the 7th of October. This is not 1935 Israel will never ever let anything or anyone try and destroy them again.
@@lynnedavies5884 Hamas doesn't have the capability to 'destroy' Israel, it never has, the best they can manage is to antagonise. If Israel were serious about minimising the risk to their own population they would stop treating the Palestinians as if they have no right to live on the land that was theirs first.
@@strikereureka5081 I really cannot be bothered to explain yet again the history what i will say is since Hamas have had power in Palestine they have become a terrorist threat to Israel and that will be stopped.

Why don’t they concentrate on all the problems we have in South Africa instead of preaching to other countries, South Africa is a mess in every way
There weee people and counties that stood with South African while they were oppressed by white Europeans invaders
You are free today in your country because of the international solidarity
I don't expect much sympathy from you Grace. You sound like an Apartheid collaborator. No one should keep quite while ethnic cleansing is taking place in Gaza.
Says the white, Afrikaans harking back to the good old Apartheid days
Yeah you definitely supported Apartheid in South Africa..
Israeli army is moral?
They are delusional
Both Hamas and Israel a wrong in handling Palestine issue, right before October 7th
South Africa look at how you handled Ukraine - Russia issue with your president. What an embarrassment.
The genocide in Gaza perpetrated by Israel.
Does South Africa really consider what Hamas did on October 7th . Or just appear just hypocrites. Am a fellow African
Brave South Africa!!!!!!!

Why don't they call for Hamas to surrender and release the hostages?
Hamas already agreed to release the hostages as negotiated. Israel is the one who backed out of negotiations
@markv1974 Hamas agrees to deal they brokered themselves. They presented a counter offer and did not agree to Israel's proposal.
It was your president who rejected the hostage deal, Ham@s accepted the deal
@@ifunanyaemenalom5719aah no, it was Qattar and Egypt who did the deal🙄🙄not Ham@s
@@ifunanyaemenalom5719 True, but I'm not talking about temporary ceasefires. I'm saying that the war could end in five minutes if Hamas surrendered and released the hostages. So, why aren't people who want the killing to stop calling for what I said?

South African citizens never died in the Mediterranean sea. Get your facts straight
South Africans are always in South Africa unless if they are required in other nations for their skills. There is no asylum seeker application in the entire world that was filled out by a South African

Uncomfortable much? 😏
womp womp Israel ties itself to America and tries to call itself a democracy. What a laughable joke of a country
Probably not as worse as all of them but it is extremely grave atm
All manufactured by Hamas. Why is aid sold on the markets? Isn't it supposed to be given for free?
Plus Burma, China, Cambodia, Sri Lanka etc. So much genocide, such short memories.
What use is this court? Totally ineffective. Why does it exist when it can't enforce its verdict on Israel.
You are blind if you don't learn now from Iran?!.
Awww shame.. her corcodile tears... but well paid for that speech
Shouldn’t they be more worried about Sudan? Where were they when Rwanda genocide happened?
RSA was under apartheid during the Rwandan genocide. RSA's fp following 1994 is bade on human rights
The war in Rwanda was a civil war, we were not invaded by an outside force. This is not the same example. Israel is also committing a genocide.
Helplessness is probably the worst punishment for world courts and organizations. There are two possibilities, Armageddon or Armageddon. 🙃🙃
Why South Africa don't mine there own business and feed there hungry people
Clearly you are stupid
I'm sure there are some African countries should be brought ICJ.
What you must be sure of is that USA & its allies must be brought to the ICJ

You are genuinely stupid. Hamas this hamas that, there proof of Zionist blocked and destroying aid meant for gaza
Stop lying Hasbara bot
@@zaidal-hindawi1784 why delete my comment
Unfortunately he is correct. This does happen. You remember a couple of months ago, the incident at the aid convoy, why do you think Israeli troops were protecting an aid convoy (spoiler: to stop Hamas appropriating the aid).
There is a horrendous video of a massive (and I mean massive) pile of food going to waste, that Hamas had stockpiled for themselves but not used so it had gone off and been dumped.
And please don't think I mention this for you to "hate Hamas" or "switch sides". You just shouldn't believe this crazy narrative we are being peddled that Hamas is some benign friendly organisation. It's just like our Western industrial war complex, a lot of senior people skimming billions off the conflict, they have a vested interest in it lasting forever.
It's sad but the actual truth is far worse and more messed than you can ever imagine. The little people (Jews and Arab Muslims alike) just caught in the middle of it all.

@@user-xe8yq5rw5f no evidence of what?
That was proved to be a lie.
For Anyone that might not know the history. The Palestinians originally welcomed them in to their lands during WW2 giving them refuge. They invited them into their homes and fed them…and the rest is history as we see on our television screens of what is taking place
Die Palästina wahr für alle da. einige Minderheit. Das wahr auch 1922 in smirna kleinen Asien
What a pathetic lie. Israel was invaded by its neighbors as soon as it was left alone. Also it was Israeli land for thousands of years before the Muslims. 👍

Don't worry. Egypt just grandstanding to it's Muslim public. The leadership hate the Palestinians (why the border is shut and all the refugees are still stuck in the war zone). And they hate Iran even more (it's Shia). So they support Israel behind closed doors, they are an ally against Iran (and a very preposterous trading nation).
Egypt receives over a billion dollars a year in US aide to not even think about getting its ass kicked by Israel again.
However Egypt doesn't mind seeing Israel twist in the wind a bit.
