IN a landmark ruling, judges at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) have unanimously ordered Israel to take immediate and effective action to guarantee the delivery of basic food supplies to the beleaguered Palestinian population in Gaza.
The ICJ issued its order on Thursday, citing the deteriorating conditions of life in Gaza, where famine and starvation are rapidly spreading as a result of the stifling Israeli blockade, Palestine News and Info Agency (WAFA) reported.
The judges emphasised that Palestinians in Gaza are no longer merely at risk of famine but are already experiencing its dire consequences.
According to the ICJ order, at least 31 individuals, including 27 children, have tragically succumbed to malnutrition and dehydration, as reported by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
The court's legally binding directive instructs Israel to undertake "all necessary and effective measures" to ensure the unhindered provision of urgently needed basic services and humanitarian assistance, including food, water, fuel, and medical supplies. This action is to be carried out in full cooperation with the United Nations.
Despite its authority, the ICJ lacks a mechanism to enforce its rulings.
