A bipartisan group of six US senators, led by Lindsey Graham, has sent a letter to the International Criminal Court (ICC) urging them not to issue arrest warrants for senior Israeli officials. The senators link their request to sexual harassment allegations made against ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan. The letter calls for the completion of the investigation into Khan before deciding on the arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and recently fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC has confirmed receiving the letter but has declined to comment.
