The International Court of Justice, the United Nations' highest court, recently concluded a significant six-day hearing on the legality of Israel's 57-year occupation of lands sought by Palestinians for a future state. The majority of voices at the hearing argued against the Israeli government, asserting that Israel was violating international law and calling for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.
During the proceedings, an unprecedented number of countries presented their views, with many emphasizing the need for Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, and to work towards implementing a two-state solution where Israel and Palestine can coexist peacefully.
