On Sunday 28 October, an Israel air strike killed three Palestinian children in the Gaza strip: 14-year-old Khaled Bassam Mahmoud Abu Said, 13-year-old Abdul Hamid Mohammad Abdul Aziz Abu Daher, and 15-year-old Mohammed Ibrahim Abdullah Al-Sattari. While Israeli authorities stated that the children were attempting to cross the perimeter fence with explosives, the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) called on Monday the International Criminal Court to investigate these killings by a missile that an unmanned drone targeted at the security fence. PLO also called to follow up this crime, to carry on an independent investigation, and to hold those who committed it accountable. As Ahmed Al-Tamimi, a member and head of human rights and civil society at PLO, stated: “This came in contravention of international conventions on the protection of children in armed conflicts.” NGO Defence for Children International-Palestine stated that six children have been killed by Israeli forces in the occupied Gaza Strip on October alone, and that 50 Palestinian children have been killed in 2018 so far.
