ICJ Rules Israeli Settlements in Palestine Illegal
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) issued a non-binding advisory opinion declaring Israel's settlement policy in the West Bank and East Jerusalem violates international law, noting concerns over Israel's expanding settlement policy and use of natural resources inconsistent with obligations under international law. The ICJ found that Israel's practices restrict Palestinians' right to self-determination, with policies leading to forcible evictions and restrictions on movement. Despite the advisory opinion's non-binding nature, it could increase international isolation for Israel. This ruling follows a 2022 request from the UN General Assembly to assess the legal consequences of Israel's occupation, settlement, and annexation in Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem.
