International Criminal Court

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry is preparing an integrated file to refer recent killing of Palestinians by Israeli forces to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

In a statement Sunday, the ministry condemned the killing of 16-year-old Palestinian teen in an Israeli checkpoint near Nablus of the occupied West Bank.

Field executions carried out by the Israeli occupation forces against Palestinians are implementation of a government policy, the ministry said.

The statement called on the international community to provide urgent international protection for the Palestinian people.
