Yesterday, the international team of lawyers representing the Palestinian people submitted the fourth defense memorandum to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, regarding the Nuseirat massacre, in which the Israeli occupation forces launched a widespread aggression “against unarmed civilians who did not in any way possess the minimum requirements for self-protection.” Last Saturday."

This memorandum, which was submitted by a team of lawyers headed by the Kuwaiti Dr. Faisal Khazal, and the membership of Tunisians Akram Al-Zaribi and Shawqi Al-Tabib, along with Suhail Ashour, the former head of the Palestinian Bar Association, is a continuation of the series of documentation carried out by the team after October 7, 2023.

The defense team authorized by the Palestinian Bar Association described the US Senate committee’s decision to approve a draft law to punish the International Criminal Court as “an orgy and a terrorist act against the International Prosecutor’s Office and the International Criminal Court, which was formed by the United Nations and the countries of the world to be the source of establishing justice and punishing criminals and perpetrators.”

Dr. Faisal Khazal said after filing the fourth annex with the International Prosecutor’s Office: “We explained to the International Prosecutor’s Office in our defense that the continued delay in taking the measures announced by the International Prosecutor and two of his senior assistants in a statement in a press conference on May 20, 2024, regarding the issuance of arrest warrants against the defendant.” The right of Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel, and Yoav Gallant, Minister of the Israeli Defense Forces, will lead to encouraging rebellion within the international communities themselves, opening the way for any party to install itself in a position higher than the international judiciary, and threaten and punish the judiciary, and then it is not permissible for anyone if This allowed him to blame criminals and perpetrators in various countries of the world if they assaulted international judicial institutions by threatening and retaliating against them.”

Khazal added: “We made it clear to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court that any delay in judicial precautionary measures as a matter of urgency, and laxity in the judicial process, lead to more innocent lives being claimed and the crimes and attacks committed against the victim Palestinian people, represented by the complainant, and that the delay in issuing The arrest warrants announced at the press conference open the way for many pressures to be exerted on the International Criminal Court, which is what is already being exerted on the Office of the Prosecutor, based on what he stated to the international media. We would also like to extend an invitation as a team to all governments. Which supports the Palestinian cause to send a letter to the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Court adopting the complaint and its annexes.
