ICC Issues Warrant for Putin Over War Crimes ⚖️

THE International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant on Friday (March 17) against Russian President Vladimir Putin, accusing him of being responsible for war crimes committed in Ukraine.

Moscow has repeatedly denied accusations of atrocities during its one-year invasion of its neighbour.

The ICC issued the warrant for Putin's arrest on suspicion of unlawful deportation of children, and unlawful transfer of population from the territory of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.

Earlier this week Reuters reported the court was expected to issue warrants, the first in its investigation into the Ukraine conflict.

Separately the court issued warrants for Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, Russia's Commissioner for Children’s Rights, on the same charges.
