Episode description

The International Court of Justice has held its first public hearing in the genocide case against Israel, over its war in Gaza.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu denies his country is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. He declared war following the October 7 terrorist attacks – where Hamas killed around 1,200 Israeli citizens and kidnapped a further 240.

Bension Siebert is joined by international law expert, Juliette McIntyre, to discuss the first day of public hearings in the landmark case – and what impact it could have on the war, and the world.
