@benjaminthorne.bsky.socialReposted by @janethanderson.bsky.socialI was interviewed for this longread piece discussing potential challenges for technologies at the International Criminal Court in light of the recent reported threats that the US administration is going to sanction the court itself.

@marcolongobardo.bsky.socialReposted by @janethanderson.bsky.socialHappy to be quoted in a very interesting piece by @janethanderson.bsky.social on the termination of the Banda case at the ICC in this article for @justiceinfo.bsky.social: www.justiceinfo.net/en/165093-ba...
@justiceinfo.bsky.socialReposted by @janethanderson.bsky.social#Sudan - In a little noted decision, judges at the ICC reluctantly accepted the prosecutorβs decision not to continue with its attempts to prosecute Abdallah Banda Abakaer Nourain (Banda), now a general in the Sudanese armed forces, for alleged crimes in Darfur.

@drmelob.bsky.socialReposted by @janethanderson.bsky.socialTom Shacklock & I wrote a piece for @opiniojuris.bsky.social on the conflict in #DRC & the new #ICJ case against #Rwanda, which I argue has a decent chance of success. Case mixes crimes & #HumanRights violations, under #Genocide Convention, CEDAW, ICERD & CAT. #intLaw opiniojuris.org/2026/09/07/a...
