Fighting a war we didn't start, Israel tells UN top court

Israel described the allegations leveled by South Africa as hypocritical and said one of the biggest cases ever to come before an international court reflected a world turned upside down. Leaders defend their offensive as a legitimate response to Hamas' October 7 attack.
