Israel is starving Palestinians, envoy tells top UN court

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
A Palestinian diplomat has informed the United Nations top court that Israel is eliminating and displacing civilians and targeting aid
employees in Gaza, in a case that Israel has actually criticised as part of its organized persecution and delegitimisation
Israel rejects deliberately targeting civilians and help staff as part of its war with Hamas and did not participate in the hearing at the
International Court of Justice
In The Hague, Palestinian Ambassador to the Netherlands Ammar Hijazi implicated Israel of breaching global law in the occupied territories
Israel is starving, eliminating and displacing Palestinians while likewise targeting and blocking humanitarian organisations trying to
conserve their lives, he informed the court
The hearings are concentrated on a request last year from the UN General Assembly, which asked the court to weigh in on Israels legal
obligations after the country obstructed the UN agency for Palestinian refugees from running on its territory
In a resolution sponsored by Norway, the General Assembly requested an advisory viewpoint, a non-binding but legally important choice from
the court, on Israels commitments in the occupied territories to guarantee and help with the unhindered arrangement of urgently required
supplies important to the survival of the Palestinian civilian population .
