Thu Nov 28 13:38:52 UTC 2024: ## ICC Seeks Arrest Warrant for Myanmar’s Military Leader
**The Hague, Netherlands** – The International Criminal Court (ICC) is reportedly seeking an arrest warrant for Myanmar’s military leader, Min Aung Hlaing, for crimes against humanity. The move follows an investigation into the military’s brutal crackdown on the Rohingya Muslim minority in 2016-2017. While specifics regarding the charges remain undisclosed pending the official warrant, the ICC’s action underscores the gravity of the situation and the ongoing pursuit of accountability for atrocities committed in Myanmar. The issuance of an arrest warrant would significantly increase international pressure on Min Aung Hlaing and could have implications for his movement and future actions.
