'Genocidal intent': Myanmar faces genocide case at ICJ

A three-day hearing initiated after Gambia filed lawsuit in November on Rohingya crisis.

Aung San Suu Kyi arrived at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague on Tuesday for a highly anticipated genocide case against Myanmar.

The case, the first international legal attempt to bring Myanmar to justice over alleged mass killings of the Rohingya minority, comes after the Gambia on November 11 filed an application at the ICJ, accusing Myanmar of violating the 1948 Genocide Convention.
More than 700,000 Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh to escape the violence.
