What impact could the latest ICJ ruling on Israel have? | Inside Story
Illegal Israeli settlements have been steadily expanding in Palestinian territories for years. Now the UN's top court says it's time for Israel to stop, reverse course, and repair the damages.
The International Court of Justice has ruled Israel's occupation is unlawful and is fueling a surge in violence. However, the court's findings are not legally binding — and the Israeli government has ignored previous decisions. So, will the ICJ's advisory opinion have any practical implications?
