The International Criminal Court (ICC) made headlines recently when its chief prosecutor applied for arrest warrants for the leaders of Israel and Hamas - accusing them of war crimes in Gaza. It’s a controversial move that has divided world leaders… It's also prompted a few Squizers to request an explainer on how the ICC works. So, in this Shortcut, we’ll look at the court’s role in the world, how it operates, and why its case against Israeli and Hamas leaders has sparked a heated global debate.
