South Africa presented their case in an initial 85 page document, followed up by their presentation. Including;
- Three pages of qoutes with ethnic cleansing and genocidal intent from Israeli officials and military leaders. This is important because it provides evidence for intent.
- The indiscriminate bombing campaign dropping more bombs in a few months than the entirety of the Iraq and Afghanistan war, with half being unguided and hundreds being 2000lbs bombs in the so called designated 'safe zones' they told the civilians to go to. There are defacto no shelter or safe zones in Gaza.
- The total destruction of the infrastructure in Gaza, including 2/3 of all structures in Northern Gaza and 60 percent of all residential homes. This coincides with the displacement of nearly 2.000.000 people. In addition to the strategic targeting in the air and on the ground of government buildings, places of worship, libraries, food mills, stores and record archives.
- The destruction of the healthcare system, now running at less than 30 percent capacity. More directly, the withholding of medicine, power and aid to hospitals resulting in disease and needless suffering. This includes C-sections and amputations without anasthesia as well as several epidemics not being treatable.
- The deliberate and stated intentional use of starvation tactics through blocking food, water and power to the civilian population as collective punishment resulting in nearly a million people starving. This is currently being described as the worst humanitarian crisis in modern history and it's estimated that 80 percent of global famine is currently in Gaza.
- The killing of 24.000 people, including almost 10.000 children in three months, as well as the largest amount of journalists and UN workers in UN history. In addition to 60.000 injured and thousands missing. Estimates are that nearly 5 percent of the population in Gaza have either been killed, injured or are missing. This is ongoing and more than 100 children are still killed each day.
- The more than 7.000 Palestinians currently held in Israeli prisons, many without trial or charges and indefinitely.
- The documented incidents of soldiers on the ground summarily executing civilians, including the case of the Israeli hostages, the storming of Al-Shifa leaving infants to rot, bulldozing bodies and homes, humiliating, kidnapping and torturing civilians, destroying shops and homes and using excessive force.
