Summary
Maurice Shnaider, uncle of slain hostage Shiri Bibas, filed a second ICC submission seeking arrest warrants for more than a dozen Hamas members over Oct. 7 crimes.
The filing argues Hamas leaders committed war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide, citing the murders of Shiri Bibas, 4-year-old Ariel and 9-month-old Kfir after their abduction from Israel.
Elliot Malin, who filed the case in December 2025, said it also targets Hamas abuses against Gazans, including alleged use of civilians as human shields and torture.
A separate September 2025 filing sought warrants for two Iranian officials, arguing Tehran directed Hamas and other proxies and should be held directly accountable for crimes in Israel and Gaza.
The ICC prosecutor's office said it is still investigating crimes in the State of Palestine dating to June 13, 2014, but Malin said neither filing has received a direct response.
