UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik), Lenka White - On Friday, the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to take measures to ensure access to Gaza for missions investigating allegations of genocide and stop the operation in Rafah.
The United States is not willing to pressure Israel to stop its military operations but is rather covering up their actions in Gaza, Russian Deputy Ambassador to the UN Dmitry Polyanskiy told Sputnik.

"The main problem is that the United States, which is the only country that is able to press Israel for anything, is not willing to do so," Polyanskiy said. "It's quite clear that they are covering [up] Israel. We are seeing that due to this, Washington's position has become more vulnerable and uncomfortable."

Polyanskiy cited pro-Palestinian student protests sweeping through the West.
"But they [the US] are trying to win the time [for Israel to proceed with their operations]," the diplomat said.
