The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has given The Gambia until May 20 within which the country may present a written statement of its observations and submissions on the preliminary objections raised by Myanmar.

The Gambia on Friday filed a more than 500-page Memorial, which also includes more than 5000 pages of supporting material, in its lawsuit against Myanmar at the ICJ in The Hague, making its case for how the Government of Myanmar is responsible for genocide against Rohingya.
