Palestine Files War Crimes Suit against Israel at International Court

International

Less than three months after Palestine became a state member of the International Criminal Court (ICC) its Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki has filed two war crimes complaints against Israel, according to Sputnik International.

Al-Maliki said that the two cases, concerning Tel Aviv’s illegal settlement activities in the occupied West Bank and its latest devastating war on the besieged Gaza Strip, will be submitted to the Hague-based court on June 25.

The Palestinian mission in The Hague said all preparations for submitting the two lawsuits have been made by Palestinian and international experts.

On accession to the ICC, Maliki said: “For seven decades, the Palestinian people have endured crimes and injustice without recourse,” highlighting the significance of this day.

“As Palestine formally becomes a State Party to the Rome Statute today, the world is also a step closer to ending a long era of impunity and injustice. Indeed, today brings us closer to our shared goals of justice and peace,” he added.
