Palestinians prepare to haul Israel before ICC
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Palestinian Authority is preparing to haul Israel before the International Criminal Court in The Hague for suspected war crimes, Palestinian unity government prime minister Rami Hamdallah says in an interview with al-Sharq al-Awsat.
Hamdallah says the Palestinians are preparing their appeal to the ICC to open an investigation against Israel.
On Saturday, Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Riyad al-Malki indicated his government would soon try to haul Israelis to The Hague for alleged war crimes.
“We will go to the ICJ, and put our signature on it. Very soon we will be a (sovereign) state. That is enough for the court to start an investigation,” Malki, on a visit to Bogota, told AFP.
