On Friday, South Africa initiated legal proceedings at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), accusing Israel of committing "genocidal" acts in Gaza.
In response, Israel rejected the case, expressing strong disapproval.
According to a statement, the ICJ application related to alleged violations by Israel of its obligations under the Genocide Convention, and said that “Israel has engaged in, is engaging in and risks further engaging in genocidal acts against the Palestinian people in Gaza”

An adviser to Iran's supreme leader recently declared that Iran would alter its nuclear doctrine if Israel posed a threat to its existence, adding yet another layer of complexity to the ongoing debate surrounding Tehran's nuclear ambitions. Despite Iran's consistent claims of pursuing a peaceful nuclear program, Western governments remain sceptical, suspecting ulterior motives behind Iran's nuclear endeavours. This ongoing dispute has resulted in enduring sanctions and heightened tensions on the global stage.

The decision reportedly comes amid
concerns about Israel's push to invade
the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
We’ve been very clear …
from the very beginning
that Israel shouldn’t launch
a major attack into Rafah
without accounting for and
protecting the civilians that
are in that battlespace, Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.
We’ve not made a final
determination on how
to proceed with that
shipment [of weapons], Lloyd Austin, United States Defense Secretary, via Al Jazeera.

Hamas announced on Friday its intention to send a delegation to Cairo to discuss a potential hostages-for-truce agreement with Israel. This development coincided with the arrival of US CIA Director William Burns in the Egyptian capital, as reported by Egyptian sources. Egypt, along with Qatar and the United States, has been actively mediating between Israel and Hamas, aiming to broker a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict, which escalated following Hamas's devastating attack on October 7. According to an Egyptian security source, Hamas and CIA representatives are scheduled to meet Egyptian mediators on Saturday. However, it remains unclear whether these meetings will be held separately or together. Hamas expressed its delegation's positive outlook towards the discussions after reviewing the latest truce proposal, affirming its determination to secure an agreement that meets Palestinian demands. While the United States has acknowledged some progress in the negotiations, the CIA declined to comment, adhering to its policy of not disclosing the director's travel details.

Yemen's Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for two attacks on ships in the Gulf of Aden and another assault in the Indian Ocean. The group's military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, announced the attacks on the MSC Diego and MSC Gina in the Gulf of Aden, along with the previously unreported attack on the MSC Vittoria in the Indian Ocean. These incidents raise concerns about the potential use of underwater drones (UUVs) by the Houthis, posing a significant threat to shipping, particularly in the Red Sea. The Centre for International Maritime Security has highlighted the secretive nature of Houthi UUV capabilities, warning of the devastating impact on targeted vessels. Amidst these developments, the Houthis have issued warnings to Israel over the conflict in the Gaza Strip, asserting that their attacks on shipping aim to pressure Israel to end the war. They have vowed to continue these assaults until Israel ceases its military actions in Gaza.
