Irish lawyer Blinne Ni Ghralaigh who is supporting South Africa's legal team at the ICJ, says the number of orphans caused by ‘Israel’s genocidal assault on the Palestinian population in Gaza’ has led to the need for a new acronym: WCNSF - wounded child, no surviving family.
Adila Hassim, a lawyer presenting South Africa’s Gaza genocide case at the ICJ, describes Israel’s 'unparalleled and unprecedented killing' of Palestinians.

A new Amnesty investigation has found that the Israeli army indiscriminately, and therefore unlawfully, used white phosphorous in an attack on Dhayra in south Lebanon on 16 October.
The attack must be investigated as a war crime.
Update: In an urgent statement he issued to government security forces, prominent Islamic Scholar, Ustaz Abubeker Ahmed, denounced the "inhuman act" of security forces and urged passage for the victims to be taken to medical centers.
"It is an inhumane act to mercilessly shoot at the innocent Muslim people who came out of their houses to pray the Friday prayers at the Grand Anuwar Mosque. I urge the security forces to stop the violent action being taken against innocent people who came out for prayers with empty hands. You should open the way for an ambulance to enter the place so that our brothers who are sheltered in the mosque and who are mercilessly shot and fallen in and around the mosque can be immediately taken to the medical center," Ustaz Abubeker said.

#Latest_Update: #Harun Media is reporting casualties, including women, as a result of security forces firing "directly" at protesters at the Grand Anuwar Mosque in #Addis_Abeba. Muslims are protesting the demolishing of at least 19 #Mosques by #Oromia regional state in the newly established Shaggar city, formerly the Oromia Special Zone Surrounding #Finfinne.
The report also mentions unknown numbers of fatalities in Addis Abeba. The media also posted graphic pictures of bloodied worshipers.
Other protests are also happening by Muslims across various cities in Oromia including in #Shashemene and #Jimma cities.
The protests are happening despite a statement yesterday by the Ethiopian Islamic Affairs Supreme Council calling on #Ethiopian Muslims to not protest today after Friday prayers on accounts that the Council is engaged in discussions with federal authorities.

Stop killing our brothers and sisters at and around #Anwarmajid in #AddisAbaba. Security forces have locked ppl in the compound and there is still shooting going on. Stop killing innocents.
