The Trump administration has announced sanctions against the International Criminal Court (ICC), according to a breaking news report by Al Qahera News Channel.
The move marks a significant escalation in the US government's longstanding opposition to the ICC's jurisdiction over American personnel and allies. The decision is expected to spark international criticism and further strain relations between Washington and institutions of global justice.
US officials have argued that the ICC lacks legitimate authority over non-member states and poses a threat to national sovereignty, especially following the court’s investigations into potential war crimes committed by U.S. forces in Afghanistan and by Israeli forces in the Palestinian territories.
