Why did the United States impose sanctions on ICC Chief Prosecutor Kareem Khan?

The United States sanctioned ICC Chief Prosecutor Kareem Khan in response to President Trump's February 6 executive order, specifically targeting Khan for the ICC's investigations into alleged Israeli war crimes in Gaza Strip and investigations targeting US personnel. The Treasury Department implemented these sanctions as part of broader opposition to the ICC's scrutiny of Israel's military conduct against Palestinians. The sanctions come amid the ICC's ongoing investigation of Israeli actions during the conflict with Palestinians in Gaza. This move represents a significant diplomatic stance by the US in support of Israel while challenging the authority of the International Criminal Court to investigate these matters.
