>> The Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) filed a criminal complaint this morning in Italy against former Israeli military commander Ofer Winter, alleging responsibility for war crimes committed during the 2014 Operation Protective Edge and incitement to commit genocide in relation to the current war in #Gaza.

>> … The complaint comes as Winter is expected to travel to Italy next week to participate in public events ...

>> The filing asserts that Italian authorities have both jurisdiction and a legal obligation to act. Under international law and its incorporation into domestic legal frameworks, states must investigate and prosecute individuals suspected of war crimes when present on their territory.

>> The complaint therefore calls for the opening of a formal criminal investigation.
