The International Court of Justice will deliver its opinion on the legal consequences of Israel's 'occupation' of Palestinian territories on July 19, the ICJ said on Friday.
A record 52 countries presented arguments at what is also known as the World Court about the legal ramifications of Israel's actions in the territories in February after the UN General Assembly asked the ICJ in 2022 for an advisory, non-binding, opinion.
While Israel has ignored such opinions in the past, the ICJ ruling next week could add political pressure over its devastating nine-month-old war against Palestinian terrorist group Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
