Target: ICC Deputy Prosecutors Nazhat Shameem Khan and Mame Mandiaye Niang; International Community
Goal: Urge the ICC Deputy Prosecutors to submit the completed arrest warrant applications for Ben-Gvir and Smotrich without further delay, and call on governments to end interference in international justice.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has a historic opportunity to hold individuals accountable for crimes of apartheid, as defined under the Rome Statute. Reports confirm that applications for arrest warrants against Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich are finalized and only require submission by ICC Deputy Prosecutors Nazhat Shameem Khan and Mame Mandiaye Niang.
However, unprecedented external pressure—including threats of US sanctions and political intimidation—has stalled this process. This undermines the independence of the ICC and the global fight for justice and human rights. The world is watching as justice for Palestinians, who have endured decades of systematic oppression and dispossession, hangs in the balance.
Delaying or shelving these applications would not only deny justice to the victims, but also set a dangerous precedent for impunity in the face of international law. We call on the ICC and the international community to resist political interference and uphold the principles of justice, equality, and accountability.
Key Demands
- The ICC Deputy Prosecutors must immediately submit the completed arrest warrant applications for Israeli ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich.
- The ICC must publicly affirm its independence from external political and economic pressures, including threats of sanctions.
- Governments must cease all interference and intimidation tactics aimed at obstructing international justice processes.
- The international community should support the ICC in prosecuting all crimes of apartheid and crimes against humanity, regardless of the perpetrator.
- Ensure transparency in all ICC proceedings related to these cases, and provide regular public updates on their status.
