Federal judge blocks Trump sanctions targeting ICC
——
 A federal judge on Friday halted the implementation of US President Donald Trump's executive order that targets individuals working with the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The decision comes in response to a lawsuit filed in April by two human rights advocates, who challenged Trump’s X February order that authorized sweeping economic and travel sanctions against anyone involved in ICC investigations related to US citizens or US allies, including Israel.

In her ruling, US District Judge Nancy Torresen described the order as a violation of constitutional protections on free speech.

"The executive order appears to restrict substantially more speech than necessary to further that end," she wrote.

"The executive order broadly prohibits any speech-based services that benefit the prosecutor, regardless of whether those beneficial services relate to an ICC investigation of the United States, Israel, or another US ally."
