on a UN request from 2022 to examine the legal matters regarding Israeli occupation of the lands outside the 1967 borders more commonly referred to as the Occupied Territories. The decision is advisory and it is expected that Israel will not comply with any decisions. It is expected that the US will continue to provide it's veto to protect Israel from being required to change in any way. This case is separate from the genocide case brought by South Africa.
Here is a link to the BBC report on the pending decision.
