The UN's International Court of Justice (ICJ) will hear objections from Russia next month after Ukraine brought a case against Moscow over its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Ukraine accuses Russia of falsely using allegations of genocide in eastern Ukraine to justify the invasion. Russia will lodge its objections on September 18th, followed by counter-arguments from Ukraine the next day.
