Karim Khan's Departure and Netanyahu Warrants
The Assembly of States Parties to the International Criminal Court has decided to dismiss Prosecutor Karim Khan from his position, amid allegations of sexual misconduct that Khan denies. This marks the first such decision since the court's establishment and comes amid significant political pressures on the tribunal, especially following Khan’s issuance of arrest warrants against Israeli officials, including Benjamin Netanyahu. His lawyers have affirmed that the decision is illegal and that Khan intends to appeal it, while the Assembly approved the dismissal with the support of 82 out of 110 members.
