According to media reports, actor George Clooney could be banned by arrival and her assets were frozen.
As the “Financial Times” reports, a warning from the British Ministry of Foreign Affairs to various lawyers with connections with the ICC, in which the US government is mentioned. One of the warning is the 47-year-old Lebanese-British citizen who worked in London.
“Hunger as a method of warfare”
As part of an international expert committee, Amal Clooney has evaluated proof of alleged war crimes. This was announced by the wife of George Clooney in the previous year on the website of her organization “Clooney Foundation for Justice”, which she founded with her famous husband. Due to the suspicion of “crimes against humanity”, Netanyahu and his then Minister of Defense Yoav Galant landed in the eyes of the Court of Justice. The expert group around Amal Clooney was explicitly called “hunger as a method of warfare, murders, persecution and extermination”. The main bank led the recommendations of the consultants.
Also against the Hamas boss Yahya al-Sinwar, who has now been murdered, whose deputy Mohammed deif and against the head of the Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, (both also killed), Chief Banklot Karim Khan published last November. The greatest protest was due to the decree against Netanyahu.

In February the US President Donald Trump ordered sanctions against Khan. In the Decree of the White House there is sanctions against others involved in the case. Trump asked for more information within a period of 60 days and then wanted to decide on an extension of the measures. This period went on 7 April. Until now there has been no statement from Washington, but the British Ministry of Foreign Affairs has nevertheless warned about the lawyers involved.
