ICC prosecutor suspended amid harassment probe; Ukraine reports continued attacks

ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan has been suspended over harassment allegations, a decision his legal team deems illegal. Concurrently, Ukraine reports 884 Russian attacks in Zaporizhzhia, causing two deaths and 38 injuries.

International Criminal Court Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan has been suspended by the Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties, pending an investigation into harassment allegations. Khan's legal representatives have declared the decision illegal. He is known for issuing arrest warrants against figures like Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu. Meanwhile, in Ukraine, Russian forces launched 884 attacks on 46 settlements in the Zaporizhzhia region, resulting in two fatalities and 38 injuries, as reported by regional head Ivan Fedorov. Allegations continue regarding the involvement of Rosatom employees in the occupation of the Chornobyl nuclear power plant, with a Russian drone reportedly attacking a nuclear waste storage facility in the Chornobyl zone on June 7, 2026. A US representative to the UN, Dan Negrea, reiterated that Russia's invasion of Ukraine constitutes a "strategic failure."
