Israel's war on Gaza: What are crimes against humanity?
13 March 2025 17:07 GMT
The International Criminal Court has recently focused on Israel’s war on Gaza, including issuing arrest warrants for crimes against humanity against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and ex-defence minister Yoav Gallant.
Hamas leaders Mohammed Deif and Yahya Sinwar, each also the subject of an ICC warrant, were both killed by Israel, and confirmed dead by Hamas.
But the ICC does not only concern itself with the Middle East, and looks at allegations of crimes against humanity elsewhere.
In November 2024, the ICC's chief prosecutor Karim Khan sought a warrant for Myanmar’s acting president, Min Aung Hlaing, for his actions against the Rohingya population.
