Israel refused to cooperate with the ICC in its investigation into the situation in Palestine – Rossiyskaya Gazeta

“We will not cooperate with the ICC because we protect the rights of our citizens and fight terrorism,” he said.

According to Ben-Dor, the people of Israel do not trust this court because they know its agenda in advance.

The representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs explained that in 2009 the UNHRC formed a commission to clarify the facts of Israeli war crimes after the operation in the Gaza Strip. However, official Jerusalem never acknowledged his report.

Earlier, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa called on the ICC to investigate Israeli war crimes.

Turkey has also prepared a complaint against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before the ICC on charges of genocide of the Gaza population.
