🔥 BAFANA BAFANA STUMBLE AGAINST 10-MAN EGYPT — NOW ALL ROADS LEAD TO A DO-OR-DIE CLASH WITH ZIMBABWE 🔥

South Africa failed to do the unthinkable — they could not beat a 10-man Egypt when the opportunity was there for the taking. After Egypt went down to ten players, Bafana Bafana had space, time, and numerical advantage, but once again lacked urgency, creativity, and killer instinct in the final third. What should have been a statement win turned into a frustrating missed opportunity.

Now the situation is crystal clear and extremely dangerous.

👉 South Africa vs Zimbabwe — last group match
👉 Both teams MUST win to stand a real chance of qualifying for the Round of 16

There are no calculations, no shortcuts, no excuses left. A draw could bury both teams depending on other results. This is a straight survival match.

❌ Questions Must Be Asked of Hugo Broos

Head coach Hugo Broos must take responsibility. Once again, eyebrows were raised over team selection. Kaizer Chiefs players were completely ignored, despite their experience and fighting spirit, while the squad leaned heavily on Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns players. When the game demanded fresh ideas and hunger, South Africa looked predictable and blunt.

You cannot dominate possession against 10 men and still fail to impose yourself. That falls squarely on tactics and selection.

🇿🇼 Zimbabwe Have Everything to Fight For

Zimbabwe are not coming into this match as underdogs with nothing to lose — they need this win just as badly as South Africa. Qualification is within reach, and the players know it. Pride, survival, and regional rivalry are all on the line.

To make matters worse, Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie has openly shown hostility toward Zimbabwe in the past. He previously expressed anger after Zimbabweans were seen celebrating South Africa’s struggles during World Cup qualification. That resentment has only added fuel to an already fiery rivalry.

⚠️ Expect a WAR, Not a Game

This will not be a friendly encounter.
This will not be tactical chess.

This will be blood, sweat, tackles, pressure, and nerves.
A loss sends one team home. A win keeps the dream alive.

South Africa failed to finish the job against 10-man Egypt.
Now they must face a motivated, desperate, and hungry Zimbabwe.

🔥 AFCON football at its most brutal. Winner survives. Loser goes home. 🔥

🔥 “I WILL ARREST NETANYAHU” — NYC MAYOR-ELECT MAKES A SHOCKING PROMISE. BUT CAN HE REALLY DO IT? 🇺🇸🇮🇱

New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has caused a political firestorm after publicly stating that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be arrested if he enters New York City.

Mamdani says this would be done in line with an International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant linked to alleged war crimes in Gaza.

The statement has gone viral — but the real question is:
Is this legally possible, or is it political theatre?

Let’s break it down clearly.

🗽 WHAT MAMDANI ACTUALLY SAID

Mamdani, who will officially take office in January 2026, has repeatedly said that New York City should respect international law and that leaders accused of serious crimes should not move freely without consequences.

He has argued that if the ICC issues arrest warrants for figures like: • Benjamin Netanyahu
• Vladimir Putin

then cities and governments should not ignore them simply because those leaders are powerful.

In his words, no one should be above the law.

🇮🇱 NETANYAHU’S RESPONSE

Netanyahu has dismissed the threat, saying he still plans to visit New York and is not concerned about being arrested.

Israeli officials and supporters have described Mamdani’s statement as: • Unrealistic
• Politically motivated
• Legally unenforceable

The issue has now become a symbolic standoff played out in public.

⚖️ THE LEGAL REALITY (THIS PART MATTERS)

Despite the strong rhetoric, most legal experts agree Mamdani cannot actually arrest Netanyahu. Here’s why:

• The United States does NOT recognize the International Criminal Court
• ICC warrants are not enforceable by U.S. cities or state police
• Only the U.S. federal government can handle matters involving foreign leaders
• Sitting heads of government usually enjoy diplomatic immunity
• A city mayor does not control international law enforcement

Even New York State officials have said clearly:
👉 A NYC mayor has no authority to arrest a foreign prime minister.

So while the statement is real, the power to act on it is not.

🧠 WHY MAMDANI MADE THIS PROMISE

Mamdani’s position reflects: • Growing anger over Israel’s war in Gaza
• Pressure from progressive and pro-Palestinian activists
• A global debate about accountability for powerful leaders
• A desire to challenge U.S. double standards on human rights

For his supporters, this is about morality and justice.
For critics, it’s about grandstanding and symbolism.

🌍 WHY THIS STORY MATTERS GLOBALLY

This controversy highlights a much bigger issue:

✔ Who enforces international law?
✔ Are powerful countries and leaders untouchable?
✔ Is the ICC only for weak states?
✔ Can cities take moral positions even without legal power?

It also shows how local politics are now deeply connected to global conflicts, especially the Gaza war.

🔮 WHAT COULD HAPPEN NEXT

• Netanyahu may still visit New York with full federal protection
• Mamdani may continue using the issue as a moral and political stance
• The U.S. government could publicly override or ignore the rhetoric
• The debate over ICC authority will intensify worldwide

But an actual arrest in New York?
👉 Highly unlikely under current law.

🧾 BOTTOM LINE

✔ Mamdani really did say it
✔ The statement is politically powerful
✔ Legally, it is almost impossible to carry out
✔ The controversy reflects global frustration with selective justice

This is less about an arrest — and more about a message.

The message:
Some leaders are no longer afraid to publicly challenge the immunity of power.

💬 QUESTION FOR YOU:
Should international law apply equally to all leaders — or only to the weak?

🔥 U.S. BOMBS ISIS TARGETS IN NIGERIA ON CHRISTMAS — WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON? 🇺🇸🇳🇬

U.S. President Donald Trump has claimed that the United States carried out airstrikes against ISIS-linked militants in Nigeria on Christmas Day, marking a rare and dramatic escalation of direct U.S. military action inside West Africa.

According to Trump, the strikes targeted Islamic State (ISIS) elements operating inside Nigeria, whom he accused of carrying out brutal attacks against civilians. He described the operation as decisive and warned that extremist groups would face continued force if they threaten lives.

🧭 WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR

The strikes reportedly focused on ISIS-affiliated fighters, believed to be linked to the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP)

The operation allegedly took place in northern or northwestern Nigeria, regions long affected by insurgency

Trump claims the action was taken to counter extremist violence, especially attacks on civilians during the Christmas period

There has been no detailed public breakdown yet of casualties, exact locations, or targets hit

U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) and Nigerian authorities have not released full operational details, which is common in ongoing counter-terrorism missions.

🇳🇬 WHY NIGERIA IS A FOCUS

Nigeria has been battling armed groups for more than a decade, including:

Boko Haram

ISIS-linked splinter groups

Criminal bandits operating alongside extremist cells

These groups operate in remote areas, attack villages, abduct civilians, and target both Christian and Muslim communities. The violence is complex and rooted in poverty, weak governance, weapons trafficking, and regional instability across the Sahel.

🇺🇸 WHY THE U.S. IS INVOLVED

The United States has long had a security footprint in West Africa, mostly through:

Intelligence sharing

Drone surveillance

Training and logistical support

Direct airstrikes inside Nigeria are rare and politically sensitive. If confirmed, this would signal:

Growing U.S. concern about ISIS expanding in Africa

Washington’s willingness to intervene militarily beyond advisory roles

A shift from indirect support to direct kinetic action

Trump has repeatedly argued that extremist violence in Nigeria is being ignored internationally and has framed the issue as part of the global war on terror.

⚠️ WHY THIS IS CONTROVERSIAL

The announcement has sparked debate for several reasons:

• Sovereignty concerns — foreign strikes inside Nigeria raise questions about consent and control
• Religious framing — some argue focusing on one group oversimplifies Nigeria’s complex conflict
• Civilian risk — airstrikes in rural regions always raise fears of collateral damage
• Regional stability — more foreign military action could inflame tensions in the Sahel

Nigeria’s security crisis affects everyone, regardless of religion or ethnicity.

🔮 WHAT COULD HAPPEN NEXT

Confirmation or clarification from U.S. and Nigerian authorities

Possible diplomatic fallout or reassurances between both governments

Increased U.S. surveillance or future strikes if ISIS activity continues

Wider debate in Africa about foreign military involvement on the continent

🌍 BIGGER PICTURE

This comes at a time when many African countries are pushing back against Western military presence, questioning whether foreign intervention truly brings long-term peace or deepens instability.

The key question remains:

Is this a necessary counter-terrorism action — or another sign of Africa becoming a battlefield for global power politics?

📝 FINAL THOUGHT

Whether confirmed in full detail or not, Trump’s claim highlights a growing reality:

👉 Africa is now a major front in the global fight against ISIS, and decisions made in Washington increasingly affect lives on the ground in African nations.

What happens next will depend on transparency, diplomacy, and whether security solutions go beyond bombs.

🔥 **NIGER SLAMS THE DOOR ON AMERICA 🇳🇪🔥

THIS IS HOW AFRICA FIGHTS BACK — U.S. CITIZENS BANNED**

Niger has taken a bold and unprecedented step by banning all American citizens from entering the country, completely halting the issuance of visas to U.S. passport holders.

The ban is indefinite and deliberate.

This decision comes after the United States classified Niger as non-eligible for U.S. visas, a move linked to Washington’s renewed travel restrictions and immigration policies associated with Donald Trump’s agenda.

Instead of begging, negotiating from weakness, or remaining silent, Niger chose reciprocity.

👉 If Nigeriens are not welcome in America, then Americans will not be welcome in Niger.

This is not about hostility.
This is about respect, equality, and sovereignty.

🌍 WHY THIS MOVE IS SHAKING GLOBAL POLITICS

For decades, African nations have endured: • Blanket visa bans
• Collective punishment
• Being labelled “high risk”
• Humiliating border treatment

All while being expected to keep their borders open and say nothing.

Niger has now drawn a line.

By closing its doors, Niger is sending a message that African dignity is not negotiable and that sovereignty means having the courage to respond when your people are disrespected.

✊🏾 WHY MANY AFRICANS ARE PRAISING NIGER

• It restores national pride
• It enforces equal treatment
• It rejects one-sided global power dynamics
• It proves Africa does not have to accept humiliation to survive

This decision also fits into Niger’s broader shift away from Western political and military dominance, as the country increasingly asserts control over its own affairs.

🔮 WHAT COULD HAPPEN NEXT

• Diplomatic tension or negotiations between Niger and the U.S.
• Pressure on Washington to reconsider blanket visa restrictions
• Other African and Sahel nations may follow Niger’s example
• Renewed calls for the African Union to adopt visa reciprocity policies

This moment raises a serious continental question:

Why should African countries keep welcoming nations that openly shut Africans out?

🔥 FINAL MESSAGE

This is bigger than visas.
This is about Africa learning to say NO.

Niger has spoken.
Africa is watching.
And the world is starting to listen.

Hijacked Buildings in South Africa: The Truth Behind the Myth of “Foreign Takeovers”

There is a growing and dangerous myth in South Africa that foreign nationals are “taking over buildings” and getting away with it. This narrative is misleading, incomplete, and contradicted by what South African documentaries, court records, police investigations, and major newspapers have consistently reported over the years.

Here are the facts.

Hijacked buildings in South Africa are not taken over by foreigners. They are overwhelmingly seized and controlled by South African criminal syndicates. These are organised gangs that exploit weak building management, corrupt officials, abandoned properties, and slow legal processes.

How building hijacking actually works

Building hijacking follows a well-documented criminal pattern:

South African criminal gangs identify abandoned or poorly managed buildings, mostly in inner cities.

They illegally take control by removing lawful caretakers, threatening owners, or forging documents.

They install their own “management” structures, often using violence, intimidation, and extortion.

Rent is then collected illegally from anyone desperate enough to need shelter.

The people living in these buildings include:

South Africans

Zimbabweans

Mozambicans

Malawians

Nigerians

Other foreign nationals

Everyone pays rent to South African criminal gangs.
Foreign nationals are tenants, not owners. They do not control the buildings. They do not have the political, legal, or criminal infrastructure to hijack properties and evade law enforcement on that scale.

Why foreigners end up in hijacked buildings

Many migrants:

Work low-paying jobs

Have no access to formal rental markets

Are excluded by landlords demanding documents, deposits, or credit histories

Hijacked buildings become a last resort, not a criminal strategy.

Who is really responsible?

The crisis is driven by:

Organised South African crime syndicates

Corrupt officials who look the other way

Property owners who abandon buildings

Weak municipal enforcement

A housing shortage in major cities

Blaming foreigners distracts from the real criminals and delays real solutions.

What newspapers and investigations have shown

South African media has repeatedly exposed:

South African hijacking “kingpins” operating openly

Illegal rent collection networks

Links to drug trade, human trafficking, and extortion

Victims being both South Africans and foreign nationals

This is not hidden information. It has been widely reported for years.

The danger of misinformation

When facts are ignored:

Innocent people become targets

Violence is misdirected

Criminals continue operating untouched

Communities are divided instead of protected

If you read newspapers, watch investigative documentaries, or follow court cases, this reality is clear.

The issue is not nationality. The issue is organised crime.
Until South Africans confront the truth, hijacked buildings will remain a weapon used by criminals—while ordinary people, local and foreign, continue to suffer.

BORDER CRACKDOWN SUCCESS: SANDF SEIZES ILLEGAL CI******ES WORTH OVER R3.4 MILLION IN LIMPOPO

A major blow has been dealt to cross-border smuggling after South African National Defence Force (SANDF) troops confiscated illicit ci******es valued at more than R3.4 million during an operation in Limpopo.

The seizure was carried out by members of 1 South African Tank Regiment, deployed under Operation Corona, a national mission aimed at safeguarding South Africa’s borders and curbing illegal activities such as smuggling, human trafficking and organised crime.

According to reports, soldiers were conducting a routine Vehicle Control Point (VCP) operation when they stopped a white Hino truck travelling from the direction of Zimbabwe into South Africa. A search of the vehicle revealed large quantities of illegal ci******es hidden in the truck.

The total value of the confiscated ci******es was estimated at R3,478,648.00, highlighting the scale of illicit trade taking place along the country’s borders and the financial losses it causes to the state.

In line with standard procedures, both the seized goods and the driver were handed over to the South African Police Service (SAPS) for further investigation and legal processing.

Colonel Dikgabane Herold Tladi praised the soldiers for their vigilance and professionalism, commending them for a job well done and for their continued commitment to protecting South Africa’s borders and economy.

The successful operation underscores the critical role played by the SANDF in supporting law enforcement agencies and disrupting criminal networks that exploit porous borders for profit.

SALUTING A RARE VOICE OF COURAGE: A WHITE SOUTH AFRICAN WHO STOOD AGAINST APARTHEID

In South Africa’s long and painful history, there have been very few white South Africans who chose to stand firmly against the brutality of apartheid, not in words alone, but through action, sacrifice and lifelong commitment to justice. Even fewer aligned themselves with the struggle for true economic freedom and historical redress for the black majority.

Carl Niehaus is one of those rare individuals.

From a young age, Niehaus rejected the privilege and protection offered by the apartheid system. Instead, he chose to side with the oppressed, becoming actively involved in the liberation struggle at a time when doing so came with serious personal risk. While many benefited from apartheid, he worked against it, challenging white supremacy and racial injustice from within a society designed to reward silence and compliance.

His political journey saw him serve the African National Congress during the transition to democracy, including a period as a spokesperson for Nelson Mandela, one of the most critical roles in shaping South Africa’s post-apartheid narrative to the world. He later represented the country abroad as a diplomat, carrying the message of a democratic South Africa built on equality and human dignity.

In recent years, Niehaus has continued his political activism through the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), where he now serves as a Member of Parliament. His presence in the EFF reflects his continued commitment to radical economic transformation, land justice and confronting the unfinished business of apartheid — particularly economic inequality that still mirrors racial lines.

Niehaus belongs to a small group of white South Africans who chose resistance over comfort, solidarity over silence, and justice over privilege. Others in this tradition stood alongside the liberation movement, faced imprisonment, exile, harassment and social rejection, all for believing that South Africa could not be free unless all its people were free.

Today, we acknowledge and salute that contribution. The struggle against racism, economic exclusion and historical injustice did not end in 1994 — and voices that continue to challenge inequality, regardless of race, remain vital.

Today, we salute you, Carl Niehaus.

ALEX STOKVEL SHOCK: Woman Disappears After R22,000 Goes Missing

An Alexandra woman is at the centre of a growing stokvel dispute after allegedly failing to hand over R22,000 belonging to a fellow member, before leaving the area and travelling to KwaZulu-Natal.

The woman, identified as Jabulile Moloi from 18th Roosevelt, is accused of not paying stokvel funds owed to Mpumi, despite repeated promises that the money would be released by 15 December. When the payment date passed, the complainant reportedly made several attempts to contact her, pleading for the money, but her messages were ignored and she was eventually blocked.

Shortly after, Moloi reportedly disappeared from Alexandra. Information later emerged suggesting that she had travelled to KZN, raising concerns that she may be trying to evade those she owes.

When reached for comment, Moloi confirmed that she had left the area, saying she needed time away to “clear her mind”. She also admitted that she currently does not have the money to pay back Mpumi.

However, the situation escalated further when Moloi expressed anger over the matter being made public. She claimed that exposing the issue affected her dignity and reputation, and she stated that this was the reason she would no longer repay the money. She insisted that involving outsiders had turned the situation into a “loss for both sides”.

The case has sparked serious questions about trust, accountability and honesty within stokvels, which many people rely on as a financial safety net. Community members are now worried that more victims could emerge, as there are suspicions that Moloi may owe money to multiple people, although this has not yet been confirmed.

As the story unfolds, the incident serves as a harsh reminder of the risks involved in informal savings schemes and the importance of transparency, clear agreements and honesty when handling other people’s money.

🇺🇸🔥 TRUMP SHOCK MOVE: “WE WILL KEEP VENEZUELA’S OIL” – GLOBAL TENSIONS RISE

US President Donald Trump has sparked international outrage after declaring that the United States will keep millions of barrels of Venezuelan oil seized from tankers, instead of returning it to Caracas.

The oil, estimated at nearly 4 million barrels, was taken from Venezuelan-linked ships as part of Washington’s hardline strategy against President Nicolás Maduro’s government. Trump has made it clear: there will be no return of the oil, and possibly not even the ships.

💥 WHY IS TRUMP DOING THIS?

Trump argues that Venezuela has:

“Looted” its own resources

Violated democratic principles

Cost US companies billions through nationalisation and sanctions disputes

By keeping the oil, Trump says the US is recovering losses, punishing Maduro’s government, and sending a strong warning to countries that defy American sanctions.

🛢️ WHAT WILL THE US DO WITH THE OIL?

Options reportedly being considered include:

Selling the oil on the global market

Adding it to America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve

Using it as leverage in future negotiations

Trump’s message is blunt: “We’re not giving it back.”

🌍 WHY THIS MATTERS

Venezuela is already in a deep economic crisis

Oil is its main source of income

Seizing and keeping the oil tightens the pressure on ordinary Venezuelans

It raises serious questions about international law and resource ownership

Most of Venezuela’s oil now goes to countries like China, not the US, but this move signals that Washington is willing to use forceful measures to enforce sanctions.

⚠️ WHAT COULD HAPPEN NEXT?

Venezuela could take the matter to international courts

Tensions between the US and its rivals could escalate

Other oil-producing countries are watching closely, fearing similar actions

This is not just about oil — it’s about power, punishment, and global control of resources.

🛢️🔥 The oil war just got real.

🔥 Macron Hits Back at US Visa Ban: “Europe’s Digital Rules Will Not Be Dictated from Outside”

French President Emmanuel Macron has strongly condemned the United States’ decision to impose visa restrictions on former EU Commissioner Thierry Breton and four other European figures, describing the move as intimidation aimed at weakening Europe’s digital sovereignty.

According to France, the US measures are a direct response to the European Union’s tough new digital regulations, which place strict obligations on powerful technology platforms operating within Europe. These laws — including rules on competition, data protection, and online content — were adopted democratically by the European Parliament and the Council of the EU, reflecting the sovereign will of European citizens.

Macron stressed that EU digital laws apply only within Europe, are not designed to target the United States or any other country, and are meant to ensure fair competition, protect users, and guarantee that illegal activities offline are also illegal online.

“The rules governing Europe’s digital space will not be decided outside Europe,” France said, warning that visa bans and political pressure would not force the EU to abandon its regulatory autonomy.

The dispute comes amid growing tension between Washington and Brussels over Europe’s crackdown on major global tech companies, many of which are US-based. European regulators argue that these platforms have grown too powerful, threatening fair markets, democracy, and user rights.

France confirmed that it is working closely with the European Commission and EU partners to respond collectively and to defend Europe’s digital sovereignty, making it clear that external pressure will not reverse laws passed through legitimate democratic processes.

The message from Paris is firm: Europe will regulate its own digital space — and it will not be bullied into submission.

🇫🇷🇪🇺 Digital sovereignty is not negotiable

🔥 DJ Warras Murder: South African Suspect Victor Mthethwa Majola Appears in Court

One of the men arrested for the murder of well-known media personality Warrick Stock, popularly known as DJ Warras, appeared at the Johannesburg Magistrate’s Court today.

The suspect has been identified as Victor Mthethwa Majola, a South African national. He is facing serious charges, including premeditated murder, following the fatal shooting of DJ Warras last week in the Johannesburg city centre.

DJ Warras was gunned down in broad daylight outside a building in the CBD, an attack that shocked the entertainment industry and raised serious concerns about safety in the inner city. Despite efforts by emergency services, he succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

Police arrested two suspects in connection with the killing. Majola is the first to formally appear in court, while the case against the second suspect has not yet progressed due to ongoing investigations.

The State has opposed bail, and the matter has been postponed as detectives continue gathering evidence. Authorities have indicated that more arrests are not ruled out.

DJ Warras was laid to rest yesterday in Rosebank, where emotional scenes unfolded as family, friends, colleagues, and fans said their final goodbyes. He was remembered as a vibrant personality, a dedicated professional, and a voice that resonated with many South Africans.

This case has once again sparked national debate about violent crime and responsibility. Time and again, brutal crimes in South Africa are blamed on foreign nationals — yet in this case, the accused is South African.

Violence in this country cannot be explained away by scapegoating outsiders. We must confront the reality that South Africans are killing South Africans, and accountability must start at home.

🕯️ Justice for DJ Warras. Truth before blame. Accountability above excuses.

🔥 GLOBAL PRESSURE MOUNTS: Belgium Joins South Africa’s Genocide Case Against Israel at the ICJ

Belgium has officially joined South Africa’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, marking a major escalation in international legal and political pressure over the war in Gaza.

What happened?

In December 2023, South Africa approached the ICJ, accusing Israel of breaching the 1948 Genocide Convention through its military campaign in Gaza. South Africa argues that Israel’s actions — including large-scale civilian deaths, destruction of infrastructure, displacement of the population, and restrictions on humanitarian aid — amount to genocidal conduct under international law.

Israel has strongly rejected the accusations, insisting that its military operations are acts of self-defence following the October 7 attacks and that it does not target civilians.

What does Belgium’s move mean?

Belgium has now filed a formal intervention at the ICJ. This does not mean Belgium is taking over the case, but it signals that it believes the interpretation and application of the Genocide Convention affects the international community as a whole — not just South Africa and Israel.

Belgium joins a growing list of countries that have stepped into the case, reflecting increasing global concern about the humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza and the conduct of the war.

What has the ICJ done so far?

The ICJ has already issued provisional measures, ordering Israel to:

Take steps to prevent acts that could fall under genocide

Allow humanitarian assistance into Gaza

Preserve evidence related to alleged violations

However, it is important to note that the ICJ does not have enforcement powers. Its rulings are legally binding, but compliance depends on states and the international system.

What is happening on the ground?

The war in Gaza continues to have devastating consequences:

Tens of thousands of Palestinians killed or injured

Massive displacement of civilians

Hospitals, schools and essential infrastructure damaged or destroyed

Severe shortages of food, water, medicine and fuel

The conflict has also raised fears of wider regional instability, with tensions involving neighbouring countries and global powers.

What could happen next?

🔹 The legal process will continue with written submissions and arguments from all parties and intervening states
🔹 A final ruling on whether genocide occurred could take years
🔹 Further provisional measures could still be issued
🔹 Diplomatic and economic pressure on Israel may increase as more countries take legal or political positions

Why this matters

Belgium’s decision signals that this is no longer a case driven by one country alone. It reflects a broader international debate about accountability, civilian protection, and the limits of warfare under international law.

As the war continues and the ICJ process unfolds, the case is shaping up to be one of the most significant international legal battles of our time, with far-reaching consequences for global justice and geopolitics.
