The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Commissioner for Children's Rights in the Office of the President of the Russian Federation, Maria Alekseyevna Lvova-Belova, on charges of war crimes related to the unlawful deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children to Russia. The ICC's pre-trial chamber found reasonable grounds to believe that each suspect bears responsibility for the war crime, and this is the latest development in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The warrants are a significant step in the international community's efforts to hold those responsible for war crimes accountable.
