HRF Calls on ICC: After Netanyahu and Gallant, Act on 1,000 Israeli War Criminals

Will Karim Khan now also move on the 1000 Israeli war-criminals we have identified? 

The Hind Rajab Foundation welcomes the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) historic decision to issue arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity. This landmark ruling is a pivotal step toward ending impunity and reaffirming that accountability applies to all, regardless of rank or position.

We call on ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan to show the same resolve in pursuing the 1,000 Israeli soldiers named in our October 2024 complaint. Supported by over 8,000 verified pieces of evidence, including videos, forensic reports, and eyewitness testimonies, this case offers undeniable proof of systematic attacks on civilians in Gaza.

Justice requires more than action from the ICC—it demands the full commitment of national courts. The Hind Rajab Foundation has already filed cases in several jurisdictions, including recently Cyprus and the UK, targeting individuals involved in war crimes in Gaza. We will continue to pursue Israeli war criminals wherever they live or travel, ensuring that no corner of the world is a safe haven for perpetrators of such heinous acts.

Our work would not be possible without the unwavering support of our global community. Your belief in justice and your contributions are the backbone of our efforts. The journey ahead is challenging, but with your continued partnership, we will achieve our shared goal of justice and accountability.

This is only the beginning. The Hind Rajab Foundation has numerous legal actions already in motion and even more in the pipeline. Together, we are acting for a future where impunity is eradicated, and justice prevails.
