live fire

Adalah demands Israel prohibit use of live ammunition against protesters; military retroactively invented 'key instigator' category to justify shootings of people who posed no immediate danger.

UN commission: Israeli use of live ammunition is illegal; rules of engagement approved by Israeli Supreme Court violate international norms; Israeli gov't hasn't meaningfully investigated and...

Israel blatantly ignoring domestic and international law; Adalah demands accountability and prosecution of those responsible for gross violations of right to life.

Every week, the Israeli military has responded to the peaceful civilian protests in Gaza with lethal and other excessive force, which has resulted to date in the killing of over 100 people.

Supreme Court fully adopts Israeli military’s position, refused to watch videos documenting shooting of Gaza demonstrators; Israeli military has killed more than 100 in Gaza since 30 March.

Since petition filed, Israeli troops have continued to kill Palestinians with live ammunition, including 59 people – seven of whom were children – on 14 May alone.

Adalah will call for investigation into those responsible for Israeli killings in Gaza and will demand those found responsible be brought to justice.
