The Hind Rajab Foundation, which has been pursuing international legal cases against Israeli soldiers alleged to have committed war crimes in Gaza, has announced new cases in Argentina and Chile, Al Jazeera reports.

The organisation, which was founded in honour of six-year-old Hind Rajab killed by Israeli tanks in the enclave earlier this year, alleged that soldier Saar Hirshoren had been documented destroying civilian infrastructure.

“A parallel case has been submitted to the International Criminal Court targeting the entire 749 Combat Engineering Battalion, naming 24 members for systematic war crimes. The Foundation urges swift action to prevent Hirshoren’s escape and ensure accountability.”
