AMNESTY International (AI) described yesterdayâs decision by Fatou Bensouda, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), to open a formal investigation into the situation in Palestine as a âmomentous breakthroughâ.
âTodayâs confirmation by the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court that she has opened an investigation into crimes under international law committed in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) is a momentous breakthrough for justice after decades of non-accountability for war crimes and crimes against humanity,â said Matthew Cannock, Head of Amnesty Internationalâs Centre for International Justice.
