As Israel seeks allies’ support against UN genocide charge, Canada won’t say whether it will intervene in case

South Africa filed an 84-page legal brief at the United Nations court last week, seeking an urgent order declaring that Israel’s bombing campaign in Gaza and its siege of the Palestinian territory is “genocidal in character” and a violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention.
