Libya has announced it will take Israel before the International Court of Justice over the 1973 downing of Libyan Arab Airlines Flight 114, in which 108 people died. The passenger plane was shot down by Israeli forces after straying into airspace over the Sinai Peninsula, then under Israeli occupation. The announcement comes amid heightened attention to legal actions against Israel and renewed scrutiny of unresolved historical cases.

Why now: The announcement follows renewed international focus on Israel and international legal proceedings, making a decades-old incident newly newsworthy.
