International Relations spokesperson Clayson Monyela says Minister Naledi Pandor will be in the Netherlands for the decision.

"South Africa is requesting that the ICJ graft interim junctions including that Israel immediately cease its military operations in Gaza, take reasonable measures to prevent the genocide of Palestinians, ensure that the displaced return to their homes and have access to humanitarian assistance including adequate food, water, fuel, medical and hygiene supplies including shelter and clothing."
