The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has issued an advisory opinion declaring Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem and the West Bank, as unlawful under international law. This opinion has been welcomed by various nations and organizations, including Indonesia, Pakistan, and the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry, which emphasized the need for compliance with this ruling to uphold international rules. The ICJ's ruling calls for Israel to cease its settlement activities and suggests reparations for damages caused by its occupation. Puan Maharani, the Speaker of Indonesia's DPR, expressed hope that this decision would catalyze diplomatic efforts for peace and justice in Palestine. The ICJ's opinion is seen as a significant step towards affirming the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and challenging Israel's actions in the region. The ruling carries implications for other nations, urging them not to recognize or assist Israel's occupation.
