"There is enough evidence suggesting mass killings now," said Said Benarbia, the ICJ's legal officer for the Middle East. "The Security Council must assess the magnitude of human rights violations. It must decide whether to have an international fact-finding mission and, if there is enough evidence, refer it to the International Criminal Court."
