The International Court of Justice has begun six days of hearings in The Hague looking into the legality of Israel's 57-year occupation of Palestinian lands.

52 states and three international organisations will provide testimony and legal opinions on the matter.

On day one, lawyers representing Palestine spoke on how Palestinians are treated differently by the law, with Israel deliberately settling on occupied land.

Meanwhile the Israeli prime minister's office has reacted to the proceedings, rejecting the court's legitimacy, while vowing to fight it.
The case at The Hague is happening against the backdrop of Israel's war on Gaza - where the death toll has passed 29,000.

Al Jazeera’s Step Vaessen reports from The Hague, the Netherlands.
