In an incident yesterday, a rocket … likely fired by Hezbollah or affiliated group, at UNIFIL (…) with some peacekeepers suffering minor injuries.

The criminal complaint is both timely and viable and should lead to the expeditious opening of an investigation by the Dutch prosecution service. The political response by the Dutch and other governments of ICC States so far is insufficient to address the problem of interference with the ICC investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine.
