<div class="field field-field-text"><p>The Hind Rijab Foundation has taken 24 Israeli soldiers and commanders to the International Criminal Court over the killing of Hind Rijab, a six-year-old Palestinian child. </p>
<p>The foundation identified the<meta charset="UTF-8"> Vampire Empire Company of the<strong> </strong>52nd Armoured Battalion operating under Israel’s 401st Armoured Brigade as responsible for the killing of Hind, six members of her family and two Palestinian medics. </p>
<p>The Foundation said three key senior Israeli commanders were responsible: Colonel Beni Aharon, commander of the 401st Armoured Brigade; Lieutenant Colonel Daniel Ella, commander of the 52nd Armoured Battalion; and Major Sean Glass, commander of the Vampire Empire Company. </p>
<p>The foundation said an additional 22 identified tank crew members of the same company "directly participated in or facilitated the attack".</p>
<p><meta charset="UTF-8"></p>
<p>"The attacks were carried out with full knowledge of the victims’ civilian and protected status, following prior coordination between the Palestinian Red Crescent and Israeli authorities," the foundation said in a statement. </p>
<p>"The Foundation’s legal team concludes that these acts amount to war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide, under Articles 6, 7, and 8 of the Rome Statute," the statement added. </p>
