Our 211 members of the South African organisations, the Palestinian Human Rights Organisations Council (PHROC), and the Palestinian Non-Governmental Organisations Network (PNGO) applaud the commitment of South Africa who has, and continues to be, a staunch supporter and protector of the fundamental rights and interests of Palestinians. It has seized the opportunity to fight for these rights before the International Court of Justice (ICJ), yet sadly the situation continues to deteriorate. In the early hours of 18 March 2025, Israel resumed its deadly onslaught on the Gaza Strip by killing over 404 Palestinians, including hundreds of women and children across Beit Lahia, Rafah, Nuseirat and Al-Mawasi. The Court may modify an existing Order on provision measures if, in its opinion, some change in the situation justifies such revocation or modification.^[1] The Court’s discretion in this regard means it is “inherently competent under this provision to interpret, and thus to specify (or clarify), the measures it has previously indicated to ensure the sound administration of justice”.^[2] This suggests that “some change in situation”, as required by Article 76, may also consist of subsequent developments anticipated by the Court but which raise concerns as to the applicability of existing Provisional Measures Orders (PMOs)
