Israel is facing charges of genocide in its fight against Hamas in Gaza, at the International Court of Justice. CGTN interviewed Geoffrey Robertson KC, a former United Nations war crimes judge and an international human rights barrister. He spoke about the significance of South Africa bringing the case forward, saying it is a "symbolic" attempt to change the definition of what amounts to genocide. He also said there can be no confident prediction of the result at this point.
