I.C.J. Tells Israel to Facilitate Aid to Gaza
AI Summary
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has issued an advisory opinion telling Israel to cooperate with UN aid efforts in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, rather than obstructing them. The ICJ, a branch of the United Nations, delivered its ruling on October 22, 2025, at the request of the U.N. General Assembly. The court stated that Israel, as an occupying power, is responsible for ensuring essential supplies of daily life to people living in these areas, including food and shelter. Israel has been accused of restricting aid into Gaza since the war began two years ago, leading to shortages of food, fuel, and medicine. The ICJ's ruling centered on Israel's attempts to curb the work of UN agency UNRWA, which aids Palestinians. Israel immediately dismissed the opinion as politically motivated.
