Palestine has filed a complaint to the United Nations against the United states and their decision to move the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
In a statement issued on Friday, the International Court of Justice said Palestine contends the embassy's relocation is in breach of the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Malki said the complaint "comes in line with the policy of the State of Palestine, which aims to preserve the character of the holy city of Jerusalem with its unique spiritual, religious and cultural dimensions".
