In a case that strikes at the heart of Israel's national identity, South Africa has accused it of committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza and pleaded with the United Nations' top court to order an immediate halt to the country's military operation.Israel, which was founded in the aftermath of the Holocaust, has vehemently denied the allegations.
