Israeli soldier sued in Thailand for war crimes in Gaza

The Hind Rajab Fund has filed a lawsuit in a Thai court against an Israeli soldier stationed in Thailand, accusing him of committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip, according to a document issued by the Research Department of the Israeli Ministry of “Diaspora and Combating Anti-Semitism” on Monday.


The document stated that the "Hind Rajab Fund" is behind the prosecution of Israeli soldiers who participated in the war on Gaza and accuses them of committing war crimes during it, and that it is using the services of a Thai law firm specializing in the laws of war and international humanitarian laws in order to prosecute Israeli soldiers.


The Hind Rajab Fund, named after a Palestinian girl who was killed in an Israeli attack on the Gaza Strip, filed a lawsuit against an Israeli soldier who was in Brazil last weekend, but managed to escape outside Brazil.


The Israeli document expected that the activity of the "Hind Rajab Fund" would escalate in the near future through cooperation with local law firms in countries around the world. The demand to prosecute Israeli soldiers comes as a continuation of the decision of the International Criminal Court in The Hague to issue international arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Security Minister Yoav Galant on suspicion of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity during the war on Gaza.


The Hind Rajab Fund was established in Brussels as a non-governmental organization last September. It collects information about Israeli soldiers from social networks where they publish photos and videos documenting their participation in the war, and others documenting their travels to foreign countries.


According to the Israeli document, the Lebanese Diab Abu Jahjah and Karim Hassoun founded the fund, which is a branch of the “March 30” movement, which has been active for thirty years in legal prosecution against Israeli soldiers around the world.


The Israeli document stated that the "Hind Rajab Fund" provided the International Criminal Court with information documenting war crimes in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon committed by more than a thousand Israeli soldiers and officers.


During the current war on Gaza, the fund has so far filed lawsuits against 28 Israeli soldiers in eight countries, and Israel has smuggled soldiers from at least five countries.
