The International Court of Justice ordered provisional measures in The Gambia’s case against Myanmar. Myanmar was required to take measures to prevent acts within the Genocide Convention against the Rohingya, preserve relevant evidence and report on implementation. The order was an important protective step for a persecuted Muslim minority, while leaving the merits of the genocide case unresolved.
