ICJ to Examine Legal Implications of Continued Israeli Occupation: Palestine’s UN Envoy

News - Middle East: The Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations says a meeting is scheduled next week with the legal department of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to review the documents required for the Hague-based court’s opinion on the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories.

 

Riyad Mansour said on Sunday that the meeting is the next step after the UN General Assembly’s passing of a resolution earlier this week, which called on the ICJ to give an advisory opinion on the consequences of the Israeli occupation.

“The ICJ will examine the legal implications of the continued Israeli occupation of our land, including the deprivation of our people of their rights, settlement construction, annexation of land and home demolitions by the Israeli occupation,” Palestine’s official WAFA news agency cited Mansour as saying.

The Palestinian envoy also pointed out that an open session of the UN Security Council will be held at the end of the month to discuss the latest developments.

Promoted by Palestinians, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution on Friday by a vote of 87 in favor, 26 against, with 53 abstentions. Russia and China voted in favor of the resolution.

Israel, the US and 24 other members, including the United Kingdom and Germany, voted against the resolution, while France was among the 53 nations that abstained.
