The UN’s highest legal body is set to announce its verdict in an urgent case filed by Qatar against the UAE for discriminating against Qatari citizens and human rights violations.

The International Court of Justice is getting ready to rule on a case filed by Qatar against the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
