## Key points

- US taxpayers and lawyers ask the ICC to investigate Trump and Rubio.
- The filing alleges US support aided crimes in Gaza.
- The ICC has not issued warrants against the two US officials.

## Summary

A group of US taxpayers and international human rights lawyers has asked the International Criminal Court (ICC) to investigate President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for allegedly aiding and abetting crimes committed by Israel in Gaza. The filing matters because it seeks to hold US officials legally accountable for their country’s support for Israel, while the Trump administration has taken steps to sanction and weaken the ICC.

The Taxpayer Alliance Against Genocide submitted an Article 15 communication, supported by affidavits from doctors, eyewitness accounts, whistleblower testimony, video and other documentation. The group says it spent nearly a year compiling evidence and that it meets the threshold for arrest warrants; the filing itself does not mean warrants have been issued. The ICC already has outstanding warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant, while a similar submission concerning former US President Joe Biden and Antony Blinken was organised last year.
