The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued a series of statements urging an end to the intimidation of its staff, following attempts by Israeli leaders, including Netanyahu, to influence the court's decision-making process. Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan specifically warned against threats of revenge, which he described as a violation of international law, and other tactics aimed at impeding the court's operations. These warnings come in the context of potential arrest warrants being considered against Israeli officials for alleged war crimes, amidst reports that Netanyahu pressured President Biden over the matter.
