German authorities detain Libyan suspect on ICC warrant
Khaled Al‑Hishri arrested over alleged crimes in Libya detention facility The International Criminal Court (ICC) has welcomed the arrest of Khaled Mohamed Ali Al‑Hishri , a senior Libyan official, by German authorities on 16 July 2025, following the issuance of a sealed arrest warrant in connection with alleged atrocities committed in Libya. Al‑Hishri, a high-ranking commander within the Special Deterrence Forces, is accused of overseeing the notorious Mitiga Prison in Tripoli, where thousands of individuals were reportedly detained in degrading and abusive conditions. Between February 2015 and early 2020, he is alleged to have played a central role in a campaign of serious violations, including murder, torture, rape, and other forms of sexual violence. The Office of the Prosecutor submitted its request for an arrest warrant on 3 April 2025. On 10 July 2025, Pre-Trial Chamber I of the ICC issued the warrant, concluding that there were reasonable grounds to believe Al‑Hishri bears individual criminal responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in or around Mitiga Prison. Al‑Hishri remains in German custody while national proceedings take place under Article 59 of the Rome Statute, pending a potential transfer to the Court's detention facility in The Hague. The ICC described the arrest as a significant milestone in its investigation into the situation in Libya — the first arrest to stem from its focused efforts on crimes committed in detention facilities. This development is part of a broader strategy grounded in United Nations Security Council Resolution 1970 (2011), with Libya having accepted the Court's jurisdiction through to the end of 2027. 'This arrest marks a crucial step towards justice for victims of grave crimes committed in Libyan detention centres,' the Prosecutor's Office stated. 'It reflects the determination of our unified Libya team and the courage of those who provided evidence at great personal risk.' The investigation has been led by the ICC's Unified Libya Team, under the direction of Deputy Prosecutor Nazhat Shameem Khan, with support from the Registry and the Court's Tracking and Information Integration Section. The Office expressed its deep appreciation to the Libyan victims and witnesses whose cooperation was essential to the investigation. It also commended the German authorities for their swift and effective execution of the arrest warrant. Looking ahead, the Office reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with national governments, regional organisations, and affected communities to uphold justice for crimes falling under the Rome Statute. The arrest of Khaled Al‑Hishri is expected to mark the beginning of formal judicial proceedings in the ICC's Libya case, setting a powerful precedent in the ongoing fight against impunity for international crimes.

Scoop: Israel seeks U.S. help on deals to move Palestinians out of Gaza
The director of Israel's Mossad spy agency visited Washington this week seeking U.S. help in convincing countries to take hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from Gaza, two sources with knowledge of issue tell Axios. The spy chief, David Barnea, told White House envoy Steve Witkoff that Israel has been speaking in particular with Ethiopia, Indonesia and Libya. Why it matters: The Israeli government's goal of removing much of Gaza's population is hugely controversial. While Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government claims such a "relocation" would be "voluntary," U.S. and Israeli legal experts have labeled it a war crime. Behind the scenes: In their meeting earlier this week, Barnea told Witkoff that Ethiopia, Indonesia and Libya had expressed openness to receiving large numbers of Palestinians from Gaza, the two source say. Barnea suggested that the U.S. offer incentives to those countries and help Israel convince them. Witkoff was non-committal, and it's not clear if the U.S. will actively weigh in on this issue, one source said. The White House, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, and the foreign ministries of Ethiopia, Indonesia and Libya did not respond to requests for comment prior to publication. Flashback: In February, President Trump proposed the removal of all two million Palestinians from Gaza to rebuild the enclave. But the White House cooled on the idea after getting significant pushback from Arab countries, U.S. officials say, and it hasn't gone anywhere. Israeli officials say the Trump administration told them that if Netanyahu wants to pursue this idea, Israel needs to find countries that are willing to take Palestinians from Gaza. Netanyahu tasked Israel's Mossad foreign intelligence agency with finding countries that would agree to receive large numbers of Palestinians displaced from the Gaza Strip. The big picture: Nearly every Palestinian in Gaza has been displaced during the war, often multiple times. Most buildings in Gaza have been damaged or destroyed. Israel has been developing a plan for moving all two million residents of the enclave to a small "humanitarian zone" near the border with Egypt. That plan has sparked concerns in Egypt and many Western countries that Israel is preparing for the mass displacement of Palestinians out of Gaza, something Netanyahu's ultranationalist coalition partners and many inside his own party have been pushing for years. While the government insists any displacement would be "voluntary," that description has little meaning under these circumstances. What they are saying: When Netanyahu visited the White House last week, Trump was asked about this issue and deferred to the Israeli Prime Minister. Netanyahu said Israel is working with the U.S. "very closely" to find countries that will agree to take Palestinians from Gaza and stressed that "we are getting close to finding several countries." "I think President Trump had a brilliant vision. It's called free choice. You know, if people want to stay, they can stay, but if they want to leave, they should be able to leave. It shouldn't be a prison," Netanyahu said.
