Claims Hamas present in Gaza's hospitals 'grossly exaggerated' says top ICC lawyer

Andrew Cayley, who is leading the ICC's Palestine investigation, questioned the reliability of claims about military activity in Gaza's hospitals that have been made to justify Israeli attacks on its healthcare facilities.

Speaking at an event last week, Cayley provided a rare glimpse inside the ICC prosecutor office's ongoing investigation into war crimes and crimes against humanity by Israeli forces and Palestinian militants.

Cayley, who reports directly to the ICC's chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, oversees the politically sensitive inquiry. Launched in 2021, it was accelerated after the Hamas-led 7 October attacks and Israel's ensuing bombardment of Gaza. Last month, Khan secured arrest warrants against the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, the country's former defence minister Yoav Gallant and the Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif as part of the inquiry.
