MORE DEMANDS FOR ISRAEL WAR CRIMES PROBE

BREAKING NEWS
The Arab League has put forward a request to the United Nations, calling for an investigation into Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip.
Permanent representatives of the Cairo-based Arab League (AL) made an appeal to the UN General Assembly on Monday to "form an international committee to investigate Israeli crimes in the Gaza Strip and to set up a criminal court to try Israeli war criminals."
With the death toll from the 23-day Israeli assault on Gaza standing above 1,300, pressure has been mounting on Israel for an independent inquiry into specific battleground incidents.
The use of controversial chemical white phosphorous shells, indiscriminate firing during the offensive in the densely-populated coastal sliver, the shelling of a UN school turned refugee camp, as well as the question as to whether other Israeli military tactics were in breach of humanitarian laws are among the issues Tel Aviv has been charged with.
The delegates from 22 Arab nations also announced that the league is set to send a fact-finding mission to Gaza to probe into allegations against Israel, including the use of white phosphorus and depleted uranium munitions, the Egyptian MENA news agency said.
The London-based human rights group Amnesty International said hitting residential streets with shells that send shrapnel over a wide area is in itself "prima facie evidence of war crimes".
Israel's most prominent human rights organization, B'Tselem, for its part, has called on the attorney general in Jerusalem (al-Quds) to investigate suspected military crimes.
