- 0:49Speaker 1: is reportedly preparing unprecedented sanctions against the entire International Criminal Court,
- 0:55Speaker 1: according to reports from the Times of Israel citing sources
- 0:58Speaker 1: familiar with the matter. This move, which could be finalised
- 1:02Speaker 1: as soon as this week, would significantly escalate US efforts
