Karim Khan, an International Criminal Court prosecutor, visited the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt on Sunday and uploaded a video on X social media, stating he plans to visit the Gaza Strip and occupied territories while in the region.

 "There should not be any impediments to humanitarian relief supplies going to children, women and men, civilians, they are innocent," Khan said.

The #ICC Office of the Prosecutor has an ongoing investigation into the situation in the State of Palestine.

He went on to say that people have rights under international humanitarian law that "give rise to even criminal responsibility when these rights are curtailed under the Rome Statute" that established the ICC.

The ICC has been investigating war crimes against humanity in the occupied Palestinian territory.

On Saturday, Cori Bush, the US representative for Missouri's 1st congressional district, commented on the Israeli decision to cut all internet and cellular communication in Gaza, stressing that "collective punishment of Palestinians in Gaza is a war crime."

Bush said in a post on X: "Israel has cut off all internet and cellular communication in Gaza. They don’t want the world to see what they are doing," adding, "We must not look away from this violence, especially during a blackout."

She proceeded to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, at a time when the United States contradicted its claims by calling for a humanitarian pause in Gaza, then voting against it at the UNGC session. 

When Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was launched on October 7, Bush called for the cut of funds to "Israel."
