ICC prosecutor seeks arrest of Israeli and Hamas leaders | DW News
The International Criminal Court's chief prosecutor says there are reasonable grounds to believe that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu bears criminal responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity. The prosecutor is therefore seeking an arrest warrant for Netanyahu. He has also applied for arrest warrants for three Hamas leaders. Hamas carried out the October 7 terror attacks in Israel and is designated as a terrorist organization by many countries.

Trump had sanctioned Karim Kan (the ICC prosecutor) and others over their intention to look into possible war-crimes of the USA in Afghanistan. Biden for all his bluster is going to follow Trump's paradigm, his administration has already said that such an indictment would not be helpful. Also note that the indictment is not yet issued, Karim Kan took the unusual step of announcing his intentions. Usually the indictment is issued first and then the ICC announces it. I think Kan did it to pre-empt any attempt by the US and the Europeans to meddle with the courts' decision.
