President Cyril Ramaphosa says the people of Gaza are facing unfathomable human suffering as the conflict between Israel and Palestine continues.
This after South Africa's latest approach to the International Court of Justice applying for the provisional measures set out for Israel in January to be strengthened in order to"prevent a catastrophic famine in the Gaza Strip".The President was speaking to the media on the side lines of the District Development Model Presidential Imbizo held at Emalahleni in Mpumalanga on Thursday.
"We want the court to take another decision on...how it addresses that and forestalls the occurrence of any other occurrence," he said."One other concerning thing is... starvation which many organisations have been warning about has now arrived. People in Gaza are now starving. "So, our action is aimed at also addressing that. The people of Palestine are really suffering, and the suffering is beyond human contemplation or understanding.
