Hamas calls for ‘immediate action’ against Israel, following ICJ ruling

Hamas has called for “immediate” international action "to end the occupation", following the ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) earlier on Friday.

The ICJ issued an advisory opinion on Friday which found that Israel's decades-long occupation of the Palestinian territories was "unlawful" and that its "near-complete separation" of people in the occupied West Bank breached international laws concerning "racial segregation" and "apartheid".
