Protests unfolded in Cape Town as part of a series of planned demonstrations in South Africa to express solidarity with the government's "genocide" case against "Israel", as reported by AFP.

Demonstrators in Cape Town gathered on the steps of the high court and displayed banners with messages such as "Stop the genocide" and "Boycott apartheid Israel."

“The important issue for us is that there is a ceasefire, that military actions are stopped in Gaza,” said Seehaam Samaai, a lawyer in attendance, as quoted by AFP.

“No armed attack on a state territory no matter how serious … can provide justification for or defend breaches of the [genocide] convention,” South African Justice Minister Ronald Lamola told the court in The Hague.

It is worth noting that the International Court of Justice (ICJ) concluded the first day of hearings in the case accusing "Israel" of committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. South Africa initiated the lawsuit in December, receiving support from various nations amid widespread international calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.
