Palestinian Authority President Abu Mazen praised the ICJ ruling calling for a halt to IDF operations in Rafah and the southern Gaza Strip, calling the war "general aggression against our people," according to Army Radio.
Earlier, Hamas similarly praised the decision, according to Sky News Arabia.
The ruling has been met with condemnation across the Israeli political spectrum, with opposition party leaders Avigdor Liberman and Yair Lapid both strongly condemning it.
