Faced with information, suggesting that the Zionist entity plans a land attack against the city of Rafah in Gaza, South Africa announced on Tuesday that it has filed a new appeal to the International Court of Justice (CIJ), the highest judicial body of the United Nations.
For South Africa, the latest developments in the Gaza Strip and the threat of a massive operation on Rafah are in contradiction with the conservatory measures decided by this court.
“We are soliciting the CIJ so that it urgently examines the announcement by Israel of a next military offensive on Rafah and is if necessary” a new violation of rights “, it said.
International pressure is intensifying Tuesday, February 13 for a Truce agreement between Israel and Hamas, after the Israeli announcement of an upcoming offensive on Rafah, the last refuge for more than a million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip.
The UN will not associate with “a forced displacement of the population” in Rafah, for its part warned Stephane Dujarric, the spokesman of the Secretary General of the United Nations.
