ICJ judge Navi Pillay wins Nobel Peace Prize

Original: ICJ judge Navi Pillay wins Nobel peace prize for promoting international law

Navi Pillay, a South African judge at the International Court of Justice, has won the Nobel Peace Prize for her work promoting international law. The Nobel Committee recognised her decades-long career, including her role chairing a UN commission of inquiry that concluded Israel was guilty of genocide in Gaza. Pillay previously served as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

Why now: The Nobel Peace Prize announcement is one of the year's most-watched global news events, and Pillay's role in findings critical of Israel makes the award especially controversial and widely discussed.
