Odeh just died. Murdered.
An Israeli settler just shot Odeh Hadalin in the lungs, a remarkable activist who helped us film No Other Land in Masafer Yatta. Residents identified Yinon Levi, sanctioned by the EU and US, as the shooter. This is him in the video firing like crazy.

The State of Palestine joined the statement on behalf of GoF reaffirming its long standing position of harmonizing the crime of aggression, for the sake of the international law-based order and the victims of this supreme crime who deserve justice.
Since 1998, the crime of aggression has been listed at the same level as the other 3 core crimes. To harmonize the jurisdictional regime for all 4 core crimes and reduce the accountability gap will send a strong political message. Full group statement: https://t.co/COExm0yVL3
