The ruling also ordered Hamas to release all hostages, and Hamas has previously claimed they would abide by any ruling of the court. I find it unlikely though that they will comply.

They probably claimed it because in their delusion they thought the court would unconditionally side with them.

Unlikely that they will release the hostages just because a court said so.
