Prosecutor Karim Khan called for the ICC to urgently rule on requests for arrest warrants for Israeli leaders, asserting the court's jurisdiction amid ongoing conflict.
In his legal brief, Khan emphasized the court's established authority in this situation, arguing for accountability for alleged war crimes connected to the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Khan's warrant requests accuse Netanyahu and others of war crimes in Gaza, a controversial assertion met with strong denials from Israel and Hamas officials.
The calls for urgent action come amid heightened tension, as discussions around accountability for actions in the war raise significant geopolitical and legal questions.
