This is the best summary I could come up with:

Canada faces an awkward political dilemma as it weighs its response to South Africa’s bid to take Israel to the International Court of Justice for its military actions in Gaza, legal experts say.

In a submission to the court in the Myanmar case last month, for example, Canada and five other Western governments argued that the evidence of genocide can include “a violent military operation triggering the forced displacement of members of a targeted group” and can also include “subjecting a group of people to a subsistence diet, systematic expulsion from homes and the induction of essential medical services below minimum requirement.”

“I don’t believe the Canadian government even studies the validity of legal applications like this to the ICJ or the moral imperatives of holding perpetrators of international crimes to account,” he said.

Taking the Gaza issue to the ICJ would remove it from “politics and social media mudslinging” and would put human rights first, Mr. Neve said.

The war began on Oct. 7 when the Gaza-based Hamas militant group launched a cross-border raid that killed about 1,200 Israelis and abducted 240 hostages, by Israel’s count.

In its full application, South Africa includes a nine-page compilation of statements by Israeli officials that, it says, show evidence of intent to commit genocidal acts in Gaza or an unwillingness to prevent them.
