The Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF) filed a complaint on Dutch police against two Israelis currently in Amsterdam on Thursday. The organization seeks to obtain the arrest of two soldiers from the Israeli defense forces who were seen brandishing a flag of the Givati brigade at the Tomorrowland music festival, Belgium, last weekend.
Accusations of war crimes
The Hind Rajab Foundation accuses these two individuals of being “responsible for serious international crimes, including war crimes and genocide committed in the Gaza Strip”. In a press release published on the Foundation site, the organization indicates that it has seized, in collaboration with the British organization GLAN, the Belgian prosecutor with a request for arrest and prosecution “within the framework of the laws of universal judicial competence of Belgium”.
A global campaign against TSAhal
The actions carried out by this organization, alongside other actors, led the former Chief of the Tsahal staff, General Herzi Halevi, to decide to hide the identity of all the fighters and officers participating in operational activities, the grade of Lieutenant-Colonel and above. These are thousands of fighters and commanders in active service and in reserves, which so far gave interviews with their face discovered and with their exposed name.
More recently, the foundation has targeted soldiers on vacation in the Netherlands and the United Arab Emirates. Hind Rajab also filed a complaint against a TSAhal soldier on vacation in Thailand, accusing him of having committed war crimes.
Leaders related to terrorist groups
The HRF organization, recorded in Belgium in September 2024, is directed by controversial figures. The president of the organization, Dyab Abu Jahjah, and his assistant, Karim Hassan, are known as anti-Israeli activists. Jahjah is notably recognized as long -standing support of the terrorist organization Hezbollah and even said in 2003 that he participated in his military training. Both expressed their support for the October 7 massacre and other terrorist actions.
