Palestinian Foreign Ministry reacts to South Africa’s genocide case against Israel

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry issued a statement in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah on Thursday, following South Africa’s court case against Israel. 

"South Africa's case before the International Court of Justice... is a historic event in the process of the joint Palestinian and South African struggle in the face of the injustice and genocide,” the ministry said. 

"Holding Israel, the illegal occupying power, accountable, using all legal tools, and through international justice institutions and international law enforcement, is the main focus of the legal strategy of the State of Palestine, and the core of the diplomatic and international movement,” it added.
