ICC prosecutor Karim Khan has rejected accusations by Israel and some of its allies questioning its independence. 

Speaking to CNN’s Christian Amanpour in an exclusive interview, Khan said the “allegations of anti-semitism, the hate, the idea that by applying the law blindly, we are favoring one side, or persecuting or being hostile to another side …. nothing can be further from the truth.”

“This is not a witch hunt, this is not some kind of emotional reaction to noise. It's a forensic process that is expected of us as international prosecutors, as an independent court, to build evidence that is solid that will not dissolve in the courtroom.”
