An-Najah News -   Israeli occupation forces killed  a disabled Palestinian man in occupied East Jerusalem alleging they suspected he had a gun. However, police later said the man was unarmed.

The slain Palestinian was named later as ,Iyad Khairi Hallak, 32, a Palestinian resident of occupied East Jerusalem with disabilities

The  Palestine Liberation Organization secretary general Saeb Erekat  called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to fulfill its mandate regarding Israeli war crimes in Palestine.

 In a tweet he said the killing of Hallak is “a new crime that will be met with impunity unless the world stops treating Israel as a state above the law and the International Criminal Court fulfills its mandate.”

The ICC Prosecutor said in December that she has decided to start an investigation into the situation of Palestine after concluding that Israel could have committee war crimes against the Palestinians under its occupation.
