ICC prosecutor warned to drop Netanyahu case or be 'destroyed': Report

"...The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Karim Khan, has been warned that if arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant are not withdrawn, he and the ICC would be "destroyed", the Middle East Eye (MEE) reports.

The warning was delivered in May to Khan by Nicholas Kaufman, a British-Israeli defence lawyer at the court linked to a Netanyahu adviser who said the Israeli leader's legal adviser told him he was "authorised" to make Khan a proposal that would allow Khan to "climb down the tree", the news website said.

According to a note of the meeting on file at the ICC and seen by MEE, Kaufman told Khan to apply to the court to reclassify the warrants and underlying information as "confidential".

This, it was suggested, would allow Israel to access the details of the allegations, which it could not do at the time, and challenge them in private - without the outcome being made public..."

'Israelis not welcome': Pro-Hamas movement poses a threat in Italy

"...As they continue to weather nearly 21 months of a multi-front regional war, Israelis have been reminded once again that some governments in the democratic world are far more reliable than others.

There are those, like Ireland and Spain, that have been truly awful: embracing the Hamas framework for understanding the conflict, trying to change the definition of genocide solely to convict Israel of this monstrous crime, and playing to the antisemitic sentiments that have surged among their respective populations..."

BREAKTHROUGH: Belgian Authorities Arrest and Interrogate Israeli War Crimes Suspects Following Complaint by Hind Rajab Foundation and GLAN

"...Boom, Belgium - In what may become a turning point in the global pursuit of accountability, Belgian federal police have arrested and interrogated two Israeli soldiers credibly accused of war crimes in Gaza. The action came in response to an urgent legal complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) earlier this week.

The suspects were identified and arrested with a clear show of force at the Tomorrowland festival in Boom. After being taken into custody, they were formally interrogated and released. The Belgian Federal Prosecutor’s Office has confirmed that a criminal investigation is now underway.

This development is a significant step forward. It signals that Belgium has recognized its jurisdiction under international law and is treating the allegations with the seriousness they deserve. At a time when far too many governments remain silent, this action sends a clear message: credible evidence of international crimes must be met with legal response - not political indifference..."

US envoy Barrack threatens Lebanon

"...BEIRUT—Since his first visit to Beirut, US envoy Thomas Barrack has repeatedly gone around in circles. He proposed an alleged American "solution", to which Lebanon responded by affirming its commitment to UN Resolution 1701 and prioritizing halting Israeli aggression, withdrawing from the occupied territories, and releasing Lebanese prisoners.

Meanwhile, Kan Radio revealed the existence of a secret, high-security wing inside Ayalon Prison, where Lebanese prisoners are held, along with Palestinian.

The secretive detention center, called Rakeft, was built underground and equipped with the latest surveillance technology and strict security measures.

According to the Hebrew radio, the guards are not identified by name, but use coded cards with numbers only, to protect their security and personal identities.

The Lebanese and Palestinian detainees languish inside these confinement cells, and are only allowed out for one hour a day, to a small, enclosed concrete yard with limited sunlight. 

During that hour, contact or conversation between detainees is prohibited. Time is allocated for showering, cleaning, and walking. 
Detainees are not allowed to leave the secret wing, even to meet with a lawyer, receive medical treatment, or attend court hearings.

On the wall is a large placard of the carpet-bombed Gaza entitled in Arabic: "New Gaza".

Earlier this month, the Palestinian Prisoners’ Information Office documented shocking testimonies of systematic torture in Israeli prisons, including the direct use of police dogs to humiliate and physically harm detainees.

According to those whom he met, Thomas Barrack was "very strict", reiterating that Hezbollah is a "terrorist organization" with which Washington does not negotiate.  

Barrack explicitly declared Washington's inability to provide the guarantees Lebanon is seeking, saying, "We cannot force Israel to do anything".

Further, the U.S. envoy claimed that Washington is using its influence and leverage to reach a "solution", but that the issue rests solely with the Lebanese government and political forces, who he claims are tired of "squabbling" and are seeking "understanding and peace with their neighbors".

Barrack also threatened Lebanon, saying if the government does not make a unanimous decision to disarm Hezbollah as soon as possible, Washington "cannot impose anything on Israel and cannot prevent it from doing anything"..."
