US imposes more ICC sanctions, targets French judge in Netanyahu case

The US has imposed sanctions on four International Criminal Court judges, including French Judge Nicolas Guillou, who is overseeing an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the ICC a "national security threat" due to its attempts to prosecute US and Israeli nationals.

The four include Judge Nicolas Guillou of France, Canadian judge, Kimberly Prost and two deputy prosecutors – Nazhat Shameem Khan of Fiji and Mame Mandiaye Niang of Senegal.

The sanctions bar these judges from entering the US and freeze their assets within the country.
