US Edition'We Love You and Israel': Israeli Recounts Emotional Encounter with Iranians at Tomorrowland
BELGIUM, JUL 20 – The Hind Rajab Foundation seeks prosecution of two Israeli soldiers for alleged war crimes in Gaza, having filed 28 complaints in eight countries, the group said.
- The Hind Rajab Foundation, based in Belgium and led by Diab Abou Jahjah, filed legal complaints to arrest two Israeli soldiers seen waving Givati Brigade flags at the Tomorrowland festival last weekend in Boom.
- This legal complaint arises from accusations that the soldiers engaged in serious international offenses, including war crimes and acts of genocide, related to events in Gaza during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023, which resulted in more than 1,200 fatalities.
- The Hind Rajab Foundation collaborated with the British Global Legal Action Network to petition Belgian prosecutors under universal jurisdiction laws amid rising European legal scrutiny of IDF personnel.
- A spokesperson for Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs called these legal pursuits attempts to delegitimize Israel’s right to defend itself, while Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi ordered concealment of officers’ identities amid growing international pressure.
- Belgian authorities acknowledged that an investigation has been initiated but have refrained from providing detailed public statements regarding the complaints, reflecting continuing legal and diplomatic challenges related to the Gaza conflict.
