Top UN court orders Israel to 'immediately halt' offensive in Rafah
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) orders Israel to halt military operations in Rafah, a landmark ruling likely to increase mounting international pressure on Israel more than seven months into the Gaza war.
The ICJ also demands the immediate release of all hostages still held by Palestinian militants, hours after the Israeli military announced troops had recovered the bodies of three more of the captives from north Gaza.
