Attention All Palestines:
Submit Your Case to ICC
The Office of the Prosecutor (OTP) of the International Criminal Court (ICC) has opened a digital platform to enable people to submit complaints online to the ICC with the option to add pictures and videos that show the crimes of the Israeli occupiers against them for the court to consider them and to take a stance against Israel. Those with information relevant to current events in Israel and Palestine are asked to provide submissions. Information submitted under this portal should relate to alleged crimes within the jurisdiction of the ICC, namely War Crimes, Crimes Against Humanity, Genocide, or Aggression.
Anyone can submit information through the portal. You do not necessarily need to be a victim or witness of the alleged crimes within the jurisdiction of the ICC listed above. Information can also be submitted collectively or through an organization (for example an NGO, your masjid, a church), as long as there is an identifiable sender.
Why This Matters:
The International Criminal Court (ICC) represents a vital avenue for justice, accountability, and human rights protections. Submissions to the ICC, such as those from Justice for All, serve to highlight egregious human rights violations, call attention to crimes against humanity, and urge international action. Justice for All’s commitment to submitting these cases underscores the necessity of vigilance and action against injustice. It reminds us that human dignity and rights are universal—and that justice delayed is justice denied.
