Abstract:
On March 5, 2024, Pre-Trial Chamber II of the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued warrants of arrest for two suspects, Mr. Sergei Ivanovich Kobylash and Mr. Viktor Nikolayevich Sokolov, for alleged war crimes committed in Ukraine between October 2022 and March 2023.
The two arrest warrants come two years after the Office of the Prosecutor (OTP) opened an investigation into the situation in Ukraine, and one year following the issuance of the warrants against Vladimir Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova for their role in the abduction of Ukrainian children (as war crimes and crimes against humanity).[1]
