Judge Donoghue says the court has decided that Israel must “take all measures within its its power” to prevent all acts within the scope of the genocide convention.

She says it must ensure “with immediate effect” that its forces do not commit any of the acts covered by the convention, reports The Guardian.

It must also take immediate measures to improve the humanitarian situation in Gaza, she says.
