1. In this Order, the measures indicated in subparagraph (2) are the key part of the dispositif. Although we all voted in favour of subparagraph (2) (b) of the dispositif, we deeply regret that this measure does not directly and explicitly order Israel to suspend its military operations for the purpose of addressing the current catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.

The Court indicates additional provisional measures

Declaration of Judge Yusuf

DECLARATION OF JUDGE YUSUF
Change in the situation in Gaza justifies new measures –– Palestinian deaths by disease and starvation, not only bombardment and ground assaults –– Indicia of genocide require preservation of the right of existence of the group –– Prevention is the only effective way to preserve this right ––Court’s measures involve obligations of result to prevent genocide –– Such obligations can only be met by suspending military operations in Gaza –– Time to respect binding measures and end atrocities.
