The recent ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) has sparked debate and raised questions about its implications. Former U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper shared his insights on the weight of the ruling, stating that it puts pressure on Israel to roll back its operations. However, Esper highlighted Israel's likely dismissal of the ruling, citing a perceived anti-Israel bias within the United Nations and its agencies.
Esper noted that Israel's ongoing operations in Rafah have seen a reduction in civilian exposure due to a significant decrease in the local population. He also mentioned the administration's support for Israel's updated plans in the region.
