Russia-Ukraine war live: Emmanuel Macron urges Ukraine’s allies not to be ‘cowards’

Russia refuses to acknowledge the arrest warrants issued by the international criminal court (ICC) for two Russian commanders, according to a statement from the Kremlin on Wednesday.

The Kremlin stated that Russia is not a signatory to the Rome Statute which established the ICC and argued that the court proceedings are closed, as reported by Reuters.

For suspected war crimes in Ukraine, the ICC issued arrest warrants for Sergei Kobylash and Viktor Sokolov, citing reasonable grounds to believe that the two individuals were responsible for “missile strikes carried out by the forces under their command against the Ukrainian electric infrastructure from at least 10 October 2022 until at least 9 March 2023”.
