President Trump signed an executive order imposing sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) for what he described as unlawful investigations into the United States and Israel. This follows an ICC arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, linked to his handling of the Gaza conflict post-Hamas attacks in October 2023. The order denounces the ICC’s actions as baseless and a dangerous precedent while banning ICC officials from the US, asserting that neither the US nor Israel recognizes the court’s authority.
