Tension between U.S., Israel, and key allies over ICC arrest warrants
President Joe Biden denounced the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court for seeking arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders, causing tension with key allies. Israel sought support from its allies and accused the prosecutor of being biased. Human rights advocates criticized Biden for his condemnation, suggesting a double standard. The U.S. and Israel do not recognize the ICC's jurisdiction, which could lead to potential arrest risks for Israeli officials.
