Seven months into the conflict triggered by Hamas's October 7 attack, Israeli forces are engaged in fierce battles with Palestinian militants in Gaza, focusing on Rafah near the Egyptian border and new flashpoints in northern and central areas. An incident of friendly fire in Jabalia resulted in the deaths of five Israeli soldiers and injuries to seven others. Despite heavy fighting and Israeli airstrikes across Gaza, Prime Minister Netanyahu has ordered an offensive in Rafah, claiming mass evacuations have prevented a humanitarian catastrophe. He emphasised that planning for Gaza's future governance is premature until Hamas is defeated. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant countered by calling for Palestinian entities, supported by international actors, to govern Gaza post-conflict. Meanwhile, Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh declared that Hamas and other Palestinian factions would determine Gaza's governance, reiterating demands for a permanent ceasefire and the lifting of the siege. The conflict has resulted in significant casualties, with 278 Israeli troops and at least 35,233 Palestinians killed, and has led to severe shortages of essential supplies in Gaza.

In a significant political challenge to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant urged Netanyahu to make difficult decisions for non-Hamas governance in Gaza, warning that the current war gains are at risk and Israel's long-term security is endangered. Gallant strongly opposed Israeli civil or military rule in Gaza, advocating instead for governance by non-Hamas Palestinian entities with international support. He stressed the urgent need for a viable alternative to Hamas to prevent the group from regrouping and undermining Israel's military achievements. Gallant called for Netanyahu to publicly reject the idea of continued Israeli control in Gaza, warning that indecision could lead to detrimental options: continued Hamas rule or Israeli military governance. He emphasised the importance of political action alongside military efforts and the critical role of all government departments in achieving this goal.

Hamas has been planning to establish a covert base in Turkey and other terror cells to coordinate attacks against Israeli targets, including NATO members, according to a document captured by the IDF in Gaza, reported by The Times. The document, found in the home of a key Hamas leaderās chief of staff, outlines a strategy to create secret bases to bolster resistance forces and conduct intelligence and military operations. The plan includes targeted assassinations, sabotage of Israeli naval vessels, and kidnappings. The Turkish government, supportive of Hamas, labels it a "liberation group." President Erdogan has harshly criticised Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, stating his methods would make "Hitler jealous." Erdogan also announced that over 1,000 Hamas members are being treated in Turkish hospitals and expressed disappointment over Greeceās stance that Hamas is a terrorist organisation. Despite public support, Erdogan denies that Hamas conducts terrorist operations from Turkey.

Lawyer Adila Hassim addressed the court, emphasising that South Africa had been compelled to return to the court due to Israel's defiance of earlier provisional measures. She noted that since Israel initiated its incursion of Rafah, 600,000 Palestinians had been forced to flee, without any safe havens. Palestinians in Gaza, she stated, were still being subjected to an ongoing and intensifying genocide, with their future hanging in the balance. Since South Africa first appeared before the ICJ in January, she highlighted that at least 11,500 Palestinians had been directly killed by Israel, with the majority being women and children. On average, she mentioned, two mothers and four children were killed every hour. She emphasized that this onslaught had occurred despite the binding orders of the court..
