The United States Firmly Opposes International Criminal Court’s Probe into Israel’s Gaza Strip Offensive
The United States announced on Monday that they do not support the International Criminal Court’s investigation into Israel’s offensive in Gaza. This announcement came as reports surfaced that Israeli officials were concerned about potential arrest warrants being issued by the Hague-based tribunal. However, the US government has made it clear that they do not support the ICC’s inquiry into Israel’s conduct in Gaza.
The White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, stated that the US does not believe the ICC has jurisdiction to pursue this investigation. Despite concerns from Israeli officials, the US government is standing firm in its position on this issue, asserting that the ICC does not have authority to investigate Israel’s actions in Gaza.
Reports suggest that Israeli officials are worried about potential arrest warrants being issued by the ICC. However, the US government has reiterated their opposition to the investigation and emphasized that they do not support the ICC’s actions regarding Israel’s offensive in Gaza. It remains unchanged despite Israeli concerns about potential arrest warrants being issued.
