Amnesty International has welcomed the International Criminal Court (ICC) decision to open an investigation into serious crimes under international law alleged to have been committed in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
Describing this as a momentous breakthrough for justice after decades of non-accountability for war crimes and crimes against humanity, the head of Amnesty International s Centre for International Justice, Matthew Cannock, added: The ICC investigation provides the first genuine prospect for thousands of victims of crimes under international law to gain long overdue access to justice, truth and reparations.
