The Guardian newspaper revealed, Monday, that 10 British citizens who served in the Israeli occupation army face charges of committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip, based on an extensive human rights report prepared for submission to the British Metropolitan Police.
The 240-page report is based on investigations conducted by human rights lawyers, in collaboration with the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights in Gaza and the London-based Public Interest Law Centre. The report covers serious violations committed between October 2023 and May 2024.
According to the document, the accused soldiers—including Israeli army officers—are suspected of involvement in launching indiscriminate attacks on civilian areas in the Gaza Strip, including hospitals, in addition to causing mass displacement and targeting sites protected under international law.
The report also accuses these individuals of deliberately targeting civilians and aid workers, which may amount to crimes against humanity.
Although the full report includes the names of the accused soldiers, it will not be made public for legal reasons. It was prepared by a team of British lawyers in collaboration with researchers in The Hague according to Qudspress.
