Top Gaza lawyer who survived Israeli air strike seeks prosecution of UK citizens

Raji Sourani, founder and director of the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights, is widely considered to be one of the world's leading Palestinian lawyers.

In early 2024, he narrowly survived an Israeli air strike in Gaza which blew up his two-storey home. In late February that year, he crossed into Egypt with his family.

Since 2015, Sourani has led the legal team representing Palestinian victims at the International Criminal Court.

And in the past year, he has been working with South Africa's legal team in its genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice.

Now the lawyer is in Britain with a new aim - seeking the prosecution of 10 British citizens accused of committing war crimes in Gaza with the Israeli military.
