The PA submits daily requests to the ICC against Israel

International law researcher Jihad Al-Harazin: "We are beginning to see the fruits of the political, legal, and diplomatic efforts that the Palestinian leadership has undertaken over many years. Since Palestine joined the ICC, it has been submitting daily requests to the ICC Prosecutor… about everything happening on Palestinian soil… We had to join this court, and our membership did not come out of a vacuum rather from extensive diplomatic efforts, led particularly by President Mahmoud Abbas… From this, a brilliant political vision emerged that would force the occupation's leaders to be brought before the most important international body for justice, the ICC, so they would be held accountable for their crimes. This leads us to appreciate the foresight and wisdom of President Mahmoud Abbas' vision when he decided to join the ICC."
