Ammon News - Al Jazeera said Tuesday it will submit a case to the International Criminal Court (ICC) over the killing of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was shot in the head while covering an Israeli raid in Jenin in the occupied West Bank in May.

"Al Jazeera's legal team has conducted a full and detailed investigation into the case and unearthed new evidence based on several eyewitness accounts, the examination of multiple items of video footage, and forensic evidence pertaining to the case," Al Jazeera said in a statement.

The network claims new evidence and video show the Palestinian-American journalist and her colleagues were directly fired at in a "deliberate killing" by what Al Jazeera called Israeli occupation forces, a claim which Israel has repeatedly denied.
