Hamas: conclusive evidence warrants immediate submission to the ICC

Jul 29, 2015 03:46 pm

Hamas's  spokesman Fawzi Barhoum stated Thursday that Amnesty International's condemnation of the Israeli war crimes in Rafah during 2014 aggression, targeting civilians and  ambulances transporting the injured, requires immediate submission of such conclusive evidence to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Calling for protection of the Palestinian people and  supporting the just Palestinian cause, Barhoum demanded the international community to take the necessary punitive measures against the Israeli criminal  leaders, and to prosecute them for committing war crimes against the Palestinian people.

Under the pretext of missing  an Israeli soldier, the Israeli occupation forces launched a brutal military assault against the civilian population in Rafah City south of the Gaza Strip on Friday 1 July 2014 killing around 135 civilians including 75 children.
