The International Criminal Court (ICC) says it has terminated proceedings against late Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh following his death in Tehran in late July.
The ICC is currently weighing the request for arrest warrants against Hamas leader Yayha Sinwar and the terror group’s military commander, Muhammad Deif, who has also been killed since.
The court’s top prosecutor has also requested arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in connection with the ongoing war in Gaza, sparked by Hamas’s October 7 massacre in southern Israel.
