The Hind Rajab Foundation, a Belgian-based pro-Palestinian legal NGO, has filed a criminal complaint with Vietnamese authorities against Matan Jeffrey, CEO of the Israeli advocacy group Im Tirtzu, according to Israeli media (N12). The foundation alleges that Jeffrey committed war crimes during his reserve military service in Gaza and Lebanon, and claims he is currently on vacation in Vietnam.
The foundation has previously pursued similar legal actions against Israelis abroad, filing complaints with the U.S. Department of Justice against National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, and submitting complaints in the Netherlands and Belgium, as The Zioneer has reported. These complaints typically allege war crimes and crimes against humanity related to Israeli military operations in Gaza and Lebanon.
The complaint in Vietnam marks a new front in the foundation's campaign to target Israeli officials and activists through international legal channels. It remains unclear whether Vietnamese authorities will act on the complaint.
