Today, the ICJ and IBAHRI called on all States to do more to ensure accountability for violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law, and crimes under international law in the Ukraine conflict, and to significantly support the work of the UN Human Rights Council’s Commission of Inquiry.
The International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) invites you to a discussion following the publication of the Report of the OSCE Moscow Mechanism’s mission of experts ‘Report on Violations of International Humanitarian and Human Rights Law, War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity Committed in Ukraine since 24 February 2022’.
Israel must end the cycle of impunity for crimes under international law committed by Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and overhaul its accountability framework and procedures, the ICJ said today.
Until then, the international community should fully support the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) investigation into the Situation in Palestine, as the sole avenue of accountability for past and ongoing crimes falling under the jurisdiction of the Court.
