Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi says that the kingdom demands an international investigation into what it says were many war crimes committed during Israel’s military campaign against Hamas in Gaza.
In remarks made during a press conference with the head of the UN Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA, Safadi says those responsible for documented crimes should be brought to justice.
Israel strenuously denies that its troops have committed war crimes.
