Russian president says Moscow ‘had the right’ to strike western countries that provide Kyiv with long-range weapons

Putin says Russia fired experimental ballistic missile into Ukraine

The US was notified by Russia shortly before its strike with an experimental intermediate-range ballistic missile on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, according to a US official.

The US official was quoted by Reuters as saying:

The US was pre-notified briefly before the launch through nuclear risk reduction channels.

We have not seen any reason to adjust our own nuclear posture or doctrine in response to Russia’s statements,” press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said.

We have not seen any indication of Russia preparing to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine. So this is more of their irresponsible [talk] from Russia that we have seen these past two years. This is a war they can end, they can end it today.”

US and Israel reject ICC warrant for Netanyahu’s arrest as number of countries signal they will abide by it – Middle East live

Léonie Chao-Fong (now) and Martin Belam (earlier) — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 14:42:42 -0500

Warrants also issued for ex-defence minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas leader Mohammed Deif; UK expected to agree if ICC request Netanyahu arrest

Israel’s position has always held that the rulings of the international criminal court do not apply to it, as it is not a member.

Foreign minister Gideon Saar on Thursday said that it had “issued absurd orders with no authority” against Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant because “Israel is not a member of the court.”

The Chamber found reasonable grounds to believe that during the relevant time, international humanitarian law related to international armed conflict between Israel and Palestine applied. This is because they are two High Contracting Parties to the 1949 Geneva Conventions and because Israel occupies at least parts of Palestine.

The Chamber also found that the law related to non-international armed conflict applied to the fighting between Israel and Hamas.
