Sanctioned ICC judges sue Trump in US over 'attack on judicial independence'
Three International Criminal Court (ICC) judges are suing U.S. President Donald Trump and his administration in a New York federal court, alleging that sanctions like asset freezes and travel bans are punishing them for conducting ICC investigations in Palestine and Afghanistan. The lawsuit claims the sanctions violate judicial independence and target their work on cases involving alleged crimes in those regions.
