When the 125 International Criminal Court member states meet on July 24 to review the determination by at least two-thirds of the 21-state executive bureau of "serious misconduct" by chief prosecutor Karim Khan after sexual abuse allegations, it is essential they have the full UN investigative (OIOS) report to read the complainant's detailed testimony and Khan's carefully crafted denials. A mere summary doesn't do justice to the 150-page report. https://t.co/svjxWDWQdw

R2P would’ve been a more palatable and legal justification for military intervention IMO. Hypocrisy aside, the argument that China and Russia cannot insulate Iran from the consequences of its widespread HR violations is a better leg to stand on for a myriad of reasons [IMO].

📣 Pendant que certains se réjouissent du nouveau bain de sang dans lequel le Moyen-Orient est plongé sur les plateaux, d’autres documentent ses conséquences.

Le @guardian reconstitue, à partir d’images vérifiées, le bombardement de l’école de filles de Minab, qui aurait tué des dizaines - peut-être plus d’une centaine - d’enfants.

Quand la mort d’enfants est invisibilisée pour des raisons politiques, comme c’était le cas à Gaza, c’est qu’il ne reste plus grand-chose de l’humanité que l’on prétend défendre.

If you think teaching international law and human rights is difficult now, you've probably been teaching it wrong your entire life

@screwarabs4ever @MarkKersten It is not illegal to arrest a person with an international arrest warrant when traveling through sovereign territory that has an obligation to do so. It’s actually illegal not to. Read the post. And refrain from using unpleasantness in your commenting. It’s rude.

What if Canada had forced Netanyahu's plane to land, detained him and then surrendered him to the #ICC? Why didn't they do that?

@NimiganSarah explores these questions and more: https://t.co/9zuQruG02Z #Gaza

Here are my thoughts as to why the Canadian government chose not to ground the Wing of Zion. Thanks Mark for giving me the space to think about this. #ICC #Gaza #Canada https://t.co/pGOg64z1fX

Security starts with you. A huge thanks to today’s Women in Security panellists for an inspiring conversation on leadership, expertise, and how security is shaped at Global Affairs Canada. Your voices help foster awareness and continuous learning.

[Mark Kersten || @markkersten.bsky.social @MarkKersten]

To be clear, Canada had to provide prior & express permission to Israel to allow a plane carrying #ICC suspect & PM Netanyahu to enter Canada's airspace.

This flies against not only the Court's warrant but any sense of justice and accountability.

Recent convictions at the #ICC "signal expanding efforts to hold perpetrators accountable for violations committed during conflict, including against women and girls as well as on the basis of gender."

Over one million Ukrainians are enduring freezing temperatures with intermittent heat, water, and electricity due to Russia’s attacks on civilian infrastructure.

Russia should cease targeting Ukraine’s energy grid and inflicting inhumane conditions on civilians.
