THE HAGUE (Reuters) -The International Criminal Court (ICC) said on Monday it had detected a "new, sophisticated and targeted" cybersecurity incident late last week, adding it has now been contained.

The incident was the second of its type against the ICC in recent years, it said in a statement.

In 2023, the ICC announced it had been hacked and the court struggled with the aftermath for weeks as it was disconnected from most systems that can access the internet. Details of that attack and who was behind it were never made public.

The court, which has been under increased scrutiny since it issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last November for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity during the Gaza conflict, did not give any more details on the latest cybersecurity incident.

The ICC also issued an arrest warrant for President Vladimir Putin on suspicion of deporting children from Ukraine. Neither Russia nor Israel is a member of the court and both deny the accusations and reject ICC jurisdiction.
