The International Criminal Court has been asked to open an "immediate investigation" into alleged Israeli crimes against the Palestinians.
Palestinian foreign minister Riad Malki said he submitted the "referral" to the court during a meeting with the ICC's chief prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, in The Hague on Tuesday.
Mr Malki said the complaint seeks an investigation into Israeli policies in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem since the state of Palestine joined the ICC in June 2014.
He said this includes Israeli settlement policies as well as the recent violence in Gaza, where Israeli fire killed over 100 Gazans during protests along the Israeli border.
Mr Malki called the request an important test of accountability for the ICC.
The ICC has been conducting a preliminary probe since 2015 into alleged crimes in the Palestinian territories.
It includes Israel's settlement policy and crimes allegedly committed by both sides in the 2014 Gaza conflict.
