Days Of Palestine – Haifa
The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel on Monday described the Israeli army bulldozer dragging a human body in Gaza as a war crime and demanded an immediate investigation into the incident.
Adalah sent an urgent letter yesterday to Israeli Chief Military Advocate General Sharon Afek, demanding he immediately open a criminal investigation into the incident that occurred yesterday morning near Khan Yunis in the south of the Gaza Strip in which an Israeli military armored bulldozer was filmed dragging a human body along the ground and repeatedly lifting it up in the air and dropping it down in the mud.
In the letter, Adalah Attorney Sawsan Zaher detailed a series of international laws – including the Rome Statute, the UN Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment, and The Hague Regulations – which classify the Israeli military actions depicted in the video as war crimes and blatant violations of international criminal law, and international human rights and humanitarian law.
