Continued attacks on Rafah breach of international humanitarian law: Norway’s FM

Norway’s Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide has said that the “Israeli style of warfare in Gaza has been in breach of international humanitarian law”, Al Jazeera reports.

“We’ve had a compulsory order from the International Court of Justice ordering Israel to stop its attack in Rafah,” he said while speaking at the Spanish embassy in Brussels.

“It is compulsory. It’s binding, which means that continuing […] in Rafah is in material breach of the decision of the highest court of the world.”
