Israel is encouraging Congress to lobby South Africa against pursuing its case at the International Court of Justice regarding alleged genocide in Gaza.
The Israeli government is leveraging diplomatic channels, urging U.S. lawmakers and Jewish groups to influence South Africa to abandon its ICJ case against Israel.
The ICJ case filed by South Africa accuses Israel of actions that 'are genocidal in character' and seeks to have the court assess these allegations.
Israeli officials hope that a new coalition in South Africa will lead to a less confrontational stance towards Israel regarding its actions in Gaza.
