The ICJ resolves UN disputes, advises, and has legally binding decisions if recognized by involved countries. As the UN's top judicial body, the ICJ handles disputes between countries and offers legal advice to the UN. The court has 15 judges, elected by the UN General Assembly and Security Council, who represent different legal systems and regions. The ICJ has heard 193 cases, including land disputes and genocide, and its decisions carry significant moral and legal authority. In its almost 80-year history, the court has never had as many submissions as in the current hearing on the legal consequences of Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories, with 52 countries and three international bodies participating. The court is expected to deliver its advisory opinion before the end of the year.
