Question for law scholars:

The can issue for signatories countries an arrest warrant on because it has jurisdiction over international crimes committed in since 2012

BUT

If doesn't recognise the , its territory isn't included in the jurisdiction, and the crimes of Hamas where carried out there, then how can the issue a legally binding arrest warrant on Hamas leaders?

Thanks😀

My understanding is that signatories to the ICC grant the jurisdiction over both:

  1. Crimes committed on the their territory (whether by their citizens or others).

  2. Crimes committed by their citizens, whether on their territory or elsewhere.

    @ml @academicchatter unfortunately for comp bio/bioinformatics/regulatory genomics, it's still mostly Twitter. Which is annoying, because I'm no longer on twitter.

    Like, we are probably over represented here, but it's nothing compared to twitter.
