JOHANNESBURG - The International Court of Justice will hear South Africa's genocide case against Israel today.
The country claims Israel has violated the UN Genocide Convention in its continuing assault in Gaza.
Both countries are signatories to the 1948 convention which gives the ICJ jurisdiction to rule on the dispute.
The South African delegation will be led by Justice Minister Ronald Lamola.
Over 23,000 Palestinians have been killed since October last year.
Israel is rejecting the claims and will present its case tomorrow.

South Africa has a top legal team at the Hague, including Tembeka Ngcukaitobi, Adila Hassim, John Dugard and Sarah Pudifin-Jones among others.
