Fatima el Mourabiti, Kenza Isnasni, Inge Neefs and Griet Deknopper were part of the flotilla party for Gaza brutally intercepted by the Israelis. They have just lodged a complaint with the federal prosecutor against the Israeli army.

The attack dates back to May 31st.

The complaint includes Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barack, General Gabi Ashkenazi, Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of Israel, and Vice Admiral Eleizer Chiney Marom, the commander of the operation in which nine passengers were killed. .

" A request for investigation of war crimes was introduced Wednesday at the federal prosecutor. It's up to him now to decide if he's going on, "says lawyer Joke Callewaert, who, along with Master Julie Tieleman, filed a suit on behalf of the four young women. The complaint was brought " serious violations of international humanitarian law, according to Article 10, 1 bis of the preliminary title of the Code of Criminal Investigation ".

This complaint, " filed in the interest of the Palestinian people, with the blockade of Gaza itself being a serious violation of humanitarian rights, " also concerns " the inhuman and degrading treatment and unlawful detention by Israel of the four militants, " Callewaert explains.

" Griet Deknopper received a sound bomb in the face and did not receive the necessary care. They had to stay for hours on deck in the cold, facing the dead. Their goods (GSM, laptops, etc.) have never been returned. They were then literally deported and illegally detained in Turkey ", concludes the lawyer.

 

The complainants invoke inter alia inhuman and degrading treatment, and theft of their property (cameras, computers, etc.)
