The statement also called on the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, in accordance with the Rome Statute, to investigate Zionist crimes, especially targeting homes and killing entire families, and to prosecute and hold accountable everyone who carried out or ordered the commission of these crimes.

The Ministry of Human Rights launched a humanitarian appeal to the free people of the world and its human rights and humanitarian organizations and bodies for effective solidarity with the Palestinian people, holding the Zionist enemy and the American and European governments fully responsible for the crimes against humanity committed by the brutal enemy against the Palestinian people, which are considered major war crimes.

The Ministry of Human Rights reiterated that rights will not be subject to statute of limitations, and the leaders of the Zionist enemy, planners, executors, and those involved in the war of human genocide against the Palestinian people will be prosecuted in the international criminal courts to receive just punishment.

The statement pointed out the legitimacy of defending the just Palestinian cause, restoring the rights of the Palestinian people, liberating their land from the occupying Zionists, and protecting Jerusalem and the holy sites from the desecration of the invading settlers and the Judaization operations.
