The UK Labour Party’s foreign affairs spokesman has called on Israel to fully comply with the ICJ’s interim order to take “all measures within its power” to prevent genocide in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

“The ICJ’s interim ruling does not give a verdict on this case, but it sets out urgent provisional measures that must be followed. Israel must now comply with the orders in this ruling in full,” UK Shadow Foreign Secretary David Lammy said in a post on X.

“The ICJ’s measures align closely with Labour’s longstanding calls for the protection of civilians, urgent humanitarian relief in Gaza and an end to extremist rhetoric. We will press for these orders to be implemented, alongside an immediate humanitarian truce and a sustainable ceasefire.”
