26 January 2024 at 14:26 Netanyahu says Israel is fighting a just war Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel is fighting a “just war without parallel.” The statement comes after the UN Court of Justice (ICJ) on Friday ordered Israel to introduce emergency measures in the Gaza Strip. Israel must ensure that its soldiers do not commit genocide, according to the ruling. Netanyahu calls the UN court’s willingness to discuss allegations of genocide “a shame that will not be erased for generations.” – We will continue to defend ourselves and our citizens, while complying with international law, Netanyahu said, quoted by Reuters. Netanyahu also says that Israel will continue the war until “absolute victory”, and until all hostages are returned and Gaza is no longer a “threat to Israel”.
