Who is Karim Khan?

Karim Khan is the current International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor. On May 20, 2024, he made headlines by issuing arrest warrants for key leaders of Israel and Hamas. He cited alleged war crimes committed during the Gaza conflict since Oct. 7, 2023, and subsequent escalations. This significant move drew mixed reactions worldwide. France and Belgium supported the ICC’s request, emphasizing the need for justice under international law. US President Joe Biden criticized the decision, calling it “outrageous” and disputing the implication of equivalence between Israel and Hamas.
