Nearly all portions of the Wall’s path remain located in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, contrary to the 9 July 2004 Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice. In its ruling, the ICJ noted in paragraph 163, that: "Israel is under an obligation to terminate its breaches of international law; it is under an obligation to cease forthwith the works of construction of the Wall being built in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including in and around East Jerusalem, to dismantle forthwith the structure therein situated, and to repeal or render ineffective forthwith all legislative and regulatory acts relating thereto, in accordance with paragraph 151 of this Opinion."To date, Israel has failed to comply with the ICJ advisory opinion.
