A group of US taxpayers and international human rights lawyers have formally petitioned the International Criminal Court to investigate President Donald Trump and his officials, according to Middle East Eye. The filing accuses them of aiding what the petitioners characterize as genocide in Gaza through continued military aid to Israel.
The complaint represents an effort to trigger ICC jurisdiction over US officials by framing their military support as complicity in alleged war crimes. The investigation request comes as the court continues examining the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict under its existing jurisdiction.
