RNA - “As the Iranian foreign ministry is pursuing the punishment of the Zionists by the international bodies, the same should be followed up for holding an international court on the crimes committed by Al Saud in Yemen." IRNA quoted Prosecutor General Ebrahim Raeesi.

He compared the Al Saud crimes with those of the Zionists in Gaza Strip.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) will soon launch an official investigation into the Saudi war crimes in its ongoing air offensives against the Yemeni people.

The ICJ responded to demands made by several Yemeni rights groups and bodies for launching a probe into the Saudi monarchy's 'crimes against humanity' in the Muslim country.
