..."In the coming days, the court will hear submissions from 32 other nations, all supporting Ukraine's argument that the court has the proper jurisdiction to handle the case.

The 1948 UN Genocide Convention defined genocide as crimes committed "with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such."
Russian officials continue to accuse Ukraine of committing genocide.
