SEAToday.com, Cuba - North American country Cuba on Friday (6/21) announced they will join South Africa’s case in International Court of Justice (ICJ) that accuses Israel of genocide against Palestinians. 

In a statement from the Foreign Affairs Ministry, Cuba accuses Israel to has “flagrantly violated” the Genocide Convention by its action in Gaza. Cuba also said that Israel, with complete impunity that’s protected by the United States, has “ignored its obligations as an Occupying Power”. 

Joining the lawsuit, Cuba’s main objective is so the court can stop the atrocities committed by Israel against Palestinians. Cuba also urged for the Charter of the United Nations and International Law to be respected. 

Over 37,000 Palestinians have since been killed in Gaza since October 7 last year, most of them women and children, and more than 85,000 others injured, according to local health authorities.

More than eight months into the Israeli war, vast tracts of Gaza lie in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water, and medicine.
