Important Note: “Unlike most twentieth-century cases of premeditated mass killing, the African slave trade was not undertaken by a single political force or military entity during the course of a few months or years. The transatlantic slave trade lasted for 400 years, from the 1450s to the 1860s, as a series of exchanges of captives reaching from the interior of sub-Saharan Africa to final purchasers in the Americas. It has been estimated that in the Atlantic slave trade, up to 12 million Africans were loaded and transported across the ocean under dreadful conditions. About 2 million victims died on the Atlantic voyage (the dreaded “Middle Passage”) and in the first year in the Americas.” From pdf below.

Gaza: World court orders Israel to halt military operations in Rafah | ICJ | United Nations

Description: May 24, 2024
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Friday issued new provisional measures that order Israel to immediately end military operations in Rafah in southern Gaza and to open the governate’s border crossing for urgent aid deliveries. This follows a request from South Africa in a pending case accusing Israel of violating its obligations under the Genocide Convention. Reading the new provisional measures in an open session at the court in The Hague, ICJ Justice Nawaf Salam announced that Israel must abide by its obligations under the Genocide Convention to “immediately halt its military offensive and any other action in the Rafah governate which may inflict upon the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that would bring about its physical destruction in whole and in part”. The court issued that decision by 13 votes in favour to two against. The new provisional measures came in response to South Africa’s request made on 10 May related to its initial accusations in December that Israel is violating its obligations under the Genocide Convention during the war in Gaza, which broke out after Hamas-led attacks on Israel in October that killed more than 1,200 people and left another 250 taken hostage. Israel’s military response has, to date, killed nearly 36,000 Palestinians and caused widespread destruction and a looming famine in the besieged and bombarded enclave.

South Africa Files Case Against Israel at International Court of Justice_ A Multimedia Report

South Africa has launched a case at the International Court of Justice accusing Israel of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The application calls for the ICJ to grant an urgent order declaring Israel was in breach of its obligations under the Genocide Convention and to order Israel to immediately suspend military operations in Gaza. It is the latest move from the African nation attempting to increase international pressure on Israel. South Africa also closed its Israeli embassy in Pretoria and suspended all diplomatic relations with Israel last month. Israel, however, has rejected the African nation’s accusation of genocide in Gaza. Credit: SKY NEWS.COM.AU
