The Palestinian National Council: Occupation’s aggression against Gaza is a war crime

International

Occupied Jerusalem (ST): The Palestinian National Council condemned the continuous assaults of the Israeli occupation on the besieged Gaza Strip and on the Palestinians in occupied Jerusalem and the rest of the West Bank cities and towns.

The Council said in a statement reported by Wafa news agency that the military aggression carried out by Israel against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and in the rest of the occupied West Bank cities, including the city of Jerusalem, is a crime to be added to Israel’s criminal record against the Palestinian people.

 

The Council pointed out that the occupation forces are deliberately destroying public and private property in the Gaza Strip in flagrant violation of Article 47 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which is considered a war crime.

The Council stated that international criminal law defines individual criminal responsibility for certain violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law, such as war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, which applies to the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people.

The Council also expressed rejection of  the double standard policy pursued by international institutions and major countries that claim their keenness to uphold the provisions and principles of international law.
