Amnesty International on Thursday called for an investigation into threeIsraeli airstrikes in southern Lebanon that killed 24 civilians, including 12children, citing possible war crimes and violations of internationalhumanitarian law.

Kristine Beckerle, Amnesty International’s deputy regional director for theMiddle East and North Africa, said, “Within just one week, the Israeli militarywiped out entire families in Lebanon, including 12 children,” noting that therewere “reasonable grounds to believe” Israeli forces violated internationalhumanitarian law in each of the three cases.

Amnesty also called on governments to impose an immediate arms embargo onIsrael and use legal mechanisms, including universal jurisdiction andextraterritorial jurisdiction, to investigate and prosecute those responsiblefor alleged violations.
