Summary: The European Union supports the International Court of Justice's ruling that Israeli settlements in the Occupied Territories are illegal, violating Article 49 of the Geneva Convention. The ICJ's advisory opinion highlights Israel's unlawful presence in these areas and calls for an end to the occupation. The ruling coincides with a Gaza campaign that has resulted in over 38,000 deaths, primarily civilians.
