The U.S. Department of Justice has been requested by the Hind Rajab Foundation to investigate and potentially prosecute Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir for alleged war crimes and incitement to genocide.

The Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) has filed a request with the U.S. Department of Justice seeking the prosecution of Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir over war crimes and incitement to genocide, ahead of his expected visit to New York on 7–8 July. According to the filing, HRF says Ben Gvir bears responsibility for abuses including war crimes and genocide-related offenses, and explains that some of the victims include U.S. nationals, which it argues gives U.S. authorities jurisdiction to act. The complaint comes as Ben Gvir is scheduled to attend a conference in New York hosted at the United Nations headquarters. #Israel #Palestine #Gaza #Genocide

The Hind Rajab Foundation has filed a complaint against Itamar Ben-Gvir for war crimes against Palestinians, including US citizens. Ben-Gvir is due to attend a police summit at the UN in New York on July 7-8. The foundation called for Ben-Gvir "to be prevented from leaving the US until the investigation was completed, & for Washington to fulfill its obligations under the Geneva Conventions." https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20260628-israels-ben-gvir-faces-us-complaint-over-alleged-war-crimes-rights-group/ #USPol #EUPol #UN #benGvir #HindRajabFoundation #news #israeliCrimes .
