ICC prosecutor urges Libya and others to arrest six militia members linked to Tarhuna atrocities.

The ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, has called on Libya and other countries to help arrest six men tied to the Al Kaniyat militia, accused of multiple killings and crimes in Tarhuna, a strategic Libyan town. Mass graves were discovered in Tarhuna in 2020 following the militia's control from 2015 to 2020. The ICC seeks international cooperation to enforce arrest warrants, as it relies on member states for enforcement. Libya's ongoing instability, marked by rival administrations, complicates the situation.
