WASHINGTON, Nov. 23 -- Human Rights First issued the following news on Nov. 22, 2024:
The International Criminal Court (ICC) yesterday issued arrest warrants against Israel's prime minister, its former defense minister, and a Hamas leader whose reported death is not yet confirmed. Human Rights First demands that the United States refrain from attacking the court with sanctions, as many U.S. legislators and officials of the incoming U.S. administration have threatened to do.
