WHAT IS THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT AND WHY IT HAS ISRAELI OFFICIALS
WORRIED


ISRAEL’S FOREIGN MINISTRY SAID LATE SUNDAY THAT IT HAD INFORMED MISSIONS ABROAD
OF “RUMORS” THAT THE COURT COULD ORDER THE ARREST OF SENIOR ISRAELI POLITICAL
AND MILITARY OFFICIALS

Exterior view of the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands.

Israeli officials sound increasingly concerned that the International Criminal
Court could issue arrest warrants for the country’s leaders more than six months
into the Israel-Hamas war.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has written in general terms about ICC action
against Israeli troops and officials, and Israel’s foreign ministry has said it
is also tracking reports of pending action.

The ICC was established in 2002 as the permanent court of last resort to
prosecute individuals responsible for the world’s most heinous atrocities – war
crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and the crime of aggression.

The Rome Statute creating the ICC was adopted in 1998 and entered into force
when it got 60 ratifications on July 1, 2002. The U.N. General Assembly endorsed
the ICC, but the court is independent.

Without a police force, the ICC relies on member states to arrest suspects,
which has proven to be a major obstacle to prosecutions.

Netanyahu said Friday on the social platform X that Israel “will never accept
any attempt by the ICC to undermine its inherent right of self-defense.”

“While the ICC will not affect Israel’s actions, it would set a dangerous
precedent,” he wrote.


Protests against the Israel-Hamas war have sprung up at college campuses across
the United States, with many offering online classes through the end of the
semester.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry said late Sunday that it had informed missions abroad
of “rumors” that the court could order the arrest of senior Israeli political
and military officials. The ministry did not give a source for the rumors.

In a statement emailed to The Associated Press, the court’s prosecution office
declined to comment in detail.


WHAT IS THE ICC?

The ICC’s 124 member states have signed on to the Rome Statute. Dozens of
countries did not sign and do not accept the court’s jurisdiction over war
crimes, genocide and other crimes. They include Israel, the United States,
Russia and China.

The ICC becomes involved when nations are unable or unwilling to prosecute
crimes on their territory. Israel argues that it has a functioning court system,
and disputes over a nation’s ability or willingness to prosecute have fueled
past disputes between the court and individual countries.

In 2020, then-President Donald Trump slapped economic and travel sanctionson the
ICC prosecutor and another senior prosecution office staffer. The ICC staff were
looking into U.S. and allies’ troops and intelligence officials for possible war
crimes in Afghanistan.

President Joe Biden, whose administration has provided crucial military and
political support for the Gaza offensive, lifted the sanctions in 2021.

The ICC has 17 ongoing investigations, has issued a total of 42 arrest warrants
and taken 21 suspects into custody. Its judges have convicted 10 suspects and
acquitted four.

GAZA CEASE-FIRE

In its early years, the court was criticized for focusing on crimes in Africa —
10 of its investigations are in African nations — but now it has investigations
in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Latin America.


WHAT IS THE ICC'S RELATIONSHIP TO ISRAEL AND PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES?

The U.N. General Assembly raised the Palestinians’ status in 2012 from a U.N.
observer to a non-member observer state. That opened the door for the
Palestinian territories to join international organizations including the ICC.

The ICC accepted “The State of Palestine” as a member in 2015, a year after the
Palestinians accepted the court’s jurisdiction.

The court’s chief prosecutor at the time announced in 2021 that she was opening
an investigation into possible crimes on Palestinian territory. Israel often
levies accusations of bias at U.N. and international bodies, and Netanyahu
slammed the decision as hypocritical and antisemitic.

Current ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan visited Ramallah and Israel in December,
meeting Palestinian officials and families of Israelis killed or taken hostage
by Hamas militants in the Oct. 7 attack that sparked the Israel-Hamas war.

Khan called Hamas’ actions “some of the most serious international crimes that
shock the conscience of humanity, crimes which the ICC was established to
address,” and called for the immediate and unconditional release of all
hostages.

Khan said “international humanitarian law must still apply” in the Israel-Hamas
war and “the Israeli military knows the law that must be applied.” After the
visit, Khan said an ICC investigation into possible crimes by Hamas militants
and Israeli forces “is a priority for my office.”


WHO ELSE HAS THE ICC CHARGED?

A year ago after the court issued a warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin
on charges of responsibility for the abductions of children from Ukraine. Russia
responded by issuing its own arrest warrants for Khan and ICC judges.

Other high-profile leaders charged by the court include ousted Sudanese
strongman Omar al-Bashir on allegations including genocide in his country’s
Darfur region. Former Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi was captured and killed by
rebels shortly after the ICC issued a warrant for his arrest on charges linked
to the brutal suppression of anti-government protests in 2011.
