The pro-Palestine advocacy group Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) has filed a legal complaint in Barcelona, Spain, against an Israeli soldier, continuing its efforts to hold Israeli forces accountable for their genocidal actions in the besieged Gaza Strip.
The Belgium-based HRF announced in a statement on Saturday that the complaint has been filed against Israeli soldier Mori Keisar of the Givati Brigade over war crimes, violations of international law, and the targeting of Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
Referring to Keisar as “Sergeant A” in the statement, the organization said, “The actions of Sergeant A and his platoon demonstrate systematic violations of international humanitarian law, targeting civilians and protected infrastructure.”
The complaint said the Israeli soldier was also accused of “genocide, crimes against humanity, and war crimes.”
The HRF cited extensive evidence of Sergeant A’s “crimes” from January to March 2024, which included the use of a civilian home in Gaza for military purposes, the use of a grenade launcher to attack a clearly marked UN school in Gaza City, the controlled demolition of two civilian homes in Khan Younis, and indiscriminate shooting at civilian homes while being cheered on by fellow soldiers.
