Hind Rajab Foundation Takes Aim At European Investment Bank Over Complicity In Israeli War Crimes
The foundation is simultaneously pursuing a separate war crimes case against former Israeli PM Ehud Olmert
The Hind Rajab Foundation’s (HRF) complaint against the European Investment Bank (EIB) for alleged complicity in Israeli war crimes has advanced to a formal assessment phase within the bank’s Complaints Mechanism (EIB-CM), Anadolu Agency reported on 4 November.
HRF said the step is not merely procedural but represents “a political and legal milestone” and “a turning point,” forcing a European institution to reckon with its role in grave breaches of international law.
The group described it as one of the first legal actions within the European Union that directly challenges the financial complicity of an EU institution in Israeli war crimes.
Filed on 20 June, the complaint called on the EIB-CM to immediately suspend and investigate over $1.1 billion in financial cooperation with Israeli entities blacklisted by the UN for their involvement in illegal settlements.
These include Bank Leumi, Electra, and other firms named in the UN’s 2020 database for facilitating and profiting from Israel’s settlement enterprise in the occupied Palestinian territories.
