The International Court of Justice at the Hague ruled today (Friday) by a majority of 15-2 to issue injunctions against Israel to protect Palestinian lives, fight incitement to genocide, and preserve evidence for the court's use to be submitted within a month, per the Times of Israel.

Israeli judge Aharon Barak supported two of these, providing humanitarian aid to Gaza and fighting incitement to genocide within Israel, and opposed the two others.
