A person who commits a crime is a criminal even if they're Israeli. Prosecuting criminals for committing crimes is NOT "anti-semitic".

#Israel / Foreign Minister Warns of 'Severe Anti-Semitic Wave' as ICC Considers Arrest Warrants for Top Officials"#Ynet is reporting that Foreign Minister Katz instructed israeli diplomats around the world to prepare for a "severe anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli wave" in response to the reports that the International Criminal Court in The Hague may issue arrest warrants against high-ranking officials. According to Katz, "if the warrants are issued, they will harm the commanders and fighters of the Israeli Defense Forces and will create a wave of incitement against us by Hamas and radical Islamic circles, led by Iran, which we are fighting." Reportedly, Katz instructed diplomats to increase security around Jewish institutions worldwide.

140 mass graves left in Gaza by Israel
There has been documentation of over 140 mass graves in various parts of the Gaza Strip since October 15th 2023, according to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor.
International human rights groups have decried Russia’s most recent attacks, calling them a violation of international humanitarian law. Meanwhile, the United Nations’ Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine said Russia’s indiscriminate attacks on Ukraine’s #energy infrastructure throughout the war may amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity.
In addition to the military advantages afforded by decimating Ukraine’s power systems, Russia is using these attacks to de-populate Ukraine

Hitting a building, waiting for first responders and the media to arrive, and hitting the same place again to target those who came to put out the fire, help the victims, or document a potential war crime is a well-honed tool of Russia in its wars.
This ruthless and illegal military tactic is called a "double-tap" attack.
Having used #Syria as a "testing ground" since 2015, Russia started #terrorizing Ukraine with "double-tap" attacks following the full-scale invasion. Those attacks have grown more frequent in recent weeks.
A Ukrainian man has filed a criminal complaint to Argentina's Federal Judiciary against the Russian occupying forces who tortured him, The Reckoning Project (TRP), an international NGO that works to bring war crime cases to court, announced on April 16.
Argentina's constitution allows for trials on "international crimes, including crimes against humanity and #WarCrimes, irrespective of where they took place," on the basis of universal jurisdiction, TRP said in a press release.
Though this case is the first time a #Ukrainian #torture complaint has been filed in Argentina, Mr M said that he is "one of so many cases."

They probably have to get their reporting to go through Israeli approval process, like what CNN and other media do right now.
The tendency of Russian troops to use munition with prohibited chemicals grows and has become "systemic," the command of Ukraine's Support Forces reported on April 5.
Ukrainian forces recorded 371 cases of usage of munition containing prohibited chemicals over the past month, which is 90 cases more than during the previous one.
For such attacks, Russia primarily uses K-51 and RG-VO grenades, which are delivered via drones, according to the Support Forces.

According to preliminary data cited by Yusov, the attack caused "significant damage" to the production capabilities of the Shahed facility, and resuming the enterprise's work "will be difficult."
"These are good results… and we are all happy about it. I think that there will be similar joys in the future. And their range will increase."
The officer ordered two female soldiers to conduct the invasive search on suspicion that the woman was hiding a SIM card to communicate with Hamas members.
The case against the officer and others involved was initially closed in 2018 due to insufficient evidence, despite the search being illegal and lacking intelligence justification.
However, following media reporting, the officer was temporarily suspended pending a new Military Police investigation into the incident.

Earlier this month, the Ukrainian military claimed that Russia has used chemical weapons 1,068 times since its full-scale invasion of Ukraine began two years ago. This includes allegations that Russia used #chloroacetophenone, a chemical comparable to tear gas but with higher toxicity.
A Russian commander even openly bragged about using chemical weapons last year.
The usage of these chemicals on the battlefield is "unquestionably" illegal, said Brett Edwards, who specializes in chemical weapons issues and lectures at the University of Bath. It goes against the #ChemicalWeapons Convention, to which Russia is a signatory.
The French Foreign Ministry announced on March 21 that legal proceedings could be initiated against Franco-Israeli soldiers who committed crimes in the Gaza Strip. Several viral videos on social media show binational citizens carrying out acts that may constitute war crimes.
[…] "The French people who are participating in the Israeli military campaign in Gaza for the past five months and who are committing well-documented war crimes will have to be prosecuted upon their return to France."

Czech President Petr Pavel said on March 16 that it is not possible to imagine Russia and Ukraine negotiating a peace agreement because Russia's proposals indicate a greater investment in continued Ukrainian subjugation than in lasting peace.
"All Russian proposals so far have been in fact a diktat," Pavel told Czech Radio.
"The Kremlin has presented its list of conditions that it as an aggressor has no right to put forward."

Western countries should not rule out the notion of sending troops to Ukraine if the battlefield condition further deteriorates, Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen told Politico on March 15.
Valtonen's remarks were the latest in a series of discussions about the possibility of sending Western troops to Ukraine that have been ongoing since French President Emmanuel Macron said in February that it should not be taken off the table.

#Israel / [l’état-c’est-moi] Netanyahu: Israel won't give in to int'l pressure trying to end war, force electionsAs expected, Netanyahu seems to be melding criticism of his personal leadership with criticism of #Israel's policies and actions, leaving no nuance or separation between the two in his comments.
Netanyahu criticized international pressure trying to end Israel's military operation in Gaza before achieving its goals. He also accused the international community of making "false accusations" against Israel's military, government and himself in an attempt to stop the war prematurely.

One Ukrainian soldier, who was detained and tortured by Russian authorities in several detention facilities, recounted his experience in the correctional colony in the town of Donskoy, Tula region, where he was repeatedly subjected to torture and left with broken bones, broken teeth and gangrene on an injured foot,” the report reads.
“‘I lost any hope and the will to live,’ the soldier said, adding that he had tried to kill himself but perpetrators subjected him to further beating.”
The document also highlights “incidents of rape and other sexual violence committed against women in circumstances which also amount to torture” as well as “incidents of torture with a sexualized dimension and threats of rape against male prisoners of war.”
Speaking to journalists in #Geneva after the release of the findings, the chair of the commission, Erik Møse, said: “Victims' accounts disclose relentless brutal treatment inflicting severe pain and suffering during prolonged detention, with blatant disregard for human dignity.”
The torture and execution of Ukrainian POWs has been well-documented throughout Russia’s full-scale invasion.
