The Iranian Red Crescent Society said on April 26, 2026 that it submitted documented evidence to the International Criminal Court alleging US and Israeli war crimes against civilians. The head of the Iranian Red Crescent said, "All cases of attacks on civilians are being legally pursued based on the Geneva Conventions." The organization said it also delivered the material to other international bodies and asked the ICC to investigate and hold officials legally accountable for attacks on civilians. The filing places the ICC in position to open probes and tests international law's ability to address civilian harm by powerful states.
