War crimes in the 2023 Israel–Hamas war

As part of the International Criminal Court's investigation into allegations of crimes in the Gaza Strip, its chief prosecutor will review attacks that killed journalists in the Israel-Hamas war, his office said in a statement Wednesday.

Israel will on Friday hit back at what it describes as "atrocious" allegations it is committing "genocide" in Gaza, in a closely watched landmark case before the U.N.'s top court.

South Africa has launched an emergency case at the International Court of Justice arguing that Israel stands in breach of the U.N. Genocide Convention, signed in 1948 in the wake of the Holocaust.
