Al Mezan and Adalah submitted an urgent letter to the Military Advocate General (MAG) demanding an immediate, independent investigation into suspected war crimes. The human rights organizations reject the Israeli army’s closure of the investigation.

On Friday 12 June 2015, the Israeli army announced the closure of the investigation file into the killing of four children of the Bakr family – Ahed (10 years), Zakaria (10 years), Mohammed (11 years) and Ismail (10 years) – by an Israeli military rocket attack, while they were playing on the fishermen’s beach in Gaza City, during the Israeli war on Gaza last summer, on 16 July 2014.(T/P008/R03)
