Tehran, IRNA – Over a hundred Australian lawyers have endorsed a move to refer prime minister Anthony Albanese to the International Criminal Court (ICC) for being an “accessory to genocide” in the Gaza Strip.
According to reports, the lawyers argued that Albanese has provided the Israeli regime with “rhetorical support in their public statements, their press conferences, their speeches” as well as material assistance.
Albanese was referred to the ICC in a communiqué presented to ICC prosecutor Karim Khan KC on Monday.
Earlier, the Austrian premier had said that the establishment of a Palestinian state must be in the form a country without armed forces.
Meanwhile, Australia’s defense minister Richard Marles said that his country would provide the US-UK coalition with military personnel in their aggression against the Ansarullah movement’s positions in Yemen.
The Zionist regime launched the genocidal war on Gaza on October 7 after a surprise retaliatory operation into the occupied territories by the Gaza-based resistance groups.
The Israeli war on Gaza has so far killed at least 30,534 Palestinians in the besieged coastal area and left more than 71,920 others injured.
