Impeding relief supplies to Gaza’s population may constitute a crime under the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) jurisdiction, the court’s top prosecutor has told a news conference in Egypt.
Karim Khan has also said Israel must make “discernable efforts, without further delay to make sure civilians receive basic foods, medicine”.
In an unannounced visit, the ICC prosecutor went to the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza earlier in the day and posted a video statement from his location on X social media.
Khan said he was not able to get into Gaza but hopes to visit the Gaza Strip and Israel while he is in the region.
