NCHR Affirms Lebanon’s Right to Pursue War Criminals

The National Human Rights Committee confirmed that political understandings, such as the trilateral agreement between the United States, Israel, and Lebanon, cannot restrict Lebanon's right to pursue those responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity. It also rejected any exchange involving Lebanese prisoners and the remains of Israeli soldiers, emphasizing that the rights of victims and the state's right to accountability must not be waived or limited by any international agreements. The committee stressed that resorting to national and international courts is a fundamental right that ensures justice. Moreover, linking the release of prisoners to a swap involving soldiers’ remains violates international law, and official commitments must be consistent with the right to legal recourse and should not restrict it.
