The Hague Yearbook of International Law is hosting a symposium on #ProvisionalMeasures in int law! Sure to be fascinating, make sure you read the CfP and spread the word 😃

We expected it was coming but it's still huge. This is very, very significant. No more business as usual. No State that purports to uphold the rule of law should send arms to someone with an ICC arrest warrant hanging over them.

Today will go down in the history of international law. The International Criminal Court (ICC) has applied for arrest warrants against Netanyahu & Gallant and Sinwar, Deif & Haniyeh. It's a game changer in global politics & the Israel-Palestine conflict.🧵 icc-cpi.int/news/statement…

Israel must "immediately halt its military offensive and any other action in the Rafah Governorate that may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that would bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part." Vote is 13-2 Historic.

The ICJ makes its most far-reaching provisional orders ruling yet, including that Israel “must immediately halt its military offensive” in Rafah, and unimpeded investigative access, citing “disastrous” humanitarian situation… A convincing 13-2 vote.

Wow.

here is the decision which has definitely only just been posted online good job

PRESS RELEASE: on 31 May 2024, in accordance with #UN Security Council resolution 9 (1946), #Palestine filed a declaration recognizing the competence of the #ICJ tinyurl.com/3cm9wz9d

Last week, I had the opportunity to judge the Final Round of the Helga Pedersen Moot Court Competition in Strasbourg. Impressive performance from all teams and congrats to the team from Uni of Birmingham for winning this year‘s edition!

It has been a pleasure to participate! Thank you Centre for Fundamental Rights - Hertie School for organising these three days full of masterclasses and feedback sessions! I learned a lot and connected with great people, and thank you for giving me the opportunity to present my research. 😊

It is surprisingly powerful to hear stated plainly that which seems legally obvious yet somehow remains contested. Gaza is occupied West Bank settlements violate int law Permanent evacuations are a form of forcible transfer etc. webtv.un.org/en/asset/k13/k…

me for the last 20min now watching ICJ webstream

I can't overstate the significance of today's ICJ advisory opinion. Major takeaways: — Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory* is illegal & must end as rapidly as possible *this includes Gaza — Israel's conduct amounts to racial segregation & apartheid

Another blockbuster from the ICJ today. Lots to process but two critical conclusions: * Israel’s continued presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory is illegal and must cease * All States and IOs are under an obligation not to recognize the unlawful situation

A lot to unpack in the ICJ advisory opinion on Palestine, but I want to highlight the important intersectional analysis, including on the basis of gender, in Judge Charlesworth's declaration--something that we don't often see from the ICJ. 👏🏾 icj-cij.org/sites/default/…

Judge Charlesworth is delivering what she promised 🙏 the ICJ needs more members with feminist views on international law

Ich bin über den 🇩🇪 IStGH Amicus entsetzt Abgesehen von den Fakten [es bestehen Zweifel an der Rechtsstaatlichkeit von Israels Regierung] kommt dies der Forderung nahe, dass der IStGH A) unterschiedl. Standards für unterschiedl. Staaten haben sollte ...

At the CIJ_ICJ today to work on my PhD dissertation before heading to the TMC Asser Instituut for what promises to be a very interesting lecture on ‘Seeking Change through International Courts: Rethinking What International Decisions Do in International Law’.
