Yes it has. The ICC has issued arrest warrants for the heads of Hamas specifically for using sexual violence as a weapon.

An arrest warrant does not prove anything, it especially doesn't prove sexual violence was used as a weapon on Oct 7th specifically.

Arrest > Trial > Jail. You can arrest someone on suspicion of a crime and then you go to trial which is ostensibly the fact finding segment of things.

Yes. The ICC is well known for issuing random arrest warrants with zero proof to back them up. Totally. (/s for those who miss it)
If you're going to cite the ICC arrest warrant for Hamas then you have to acknowledge the one they've issued to Netanyahu for using starvation as a weapon.
Of course. They’re all criminals and they should all be prosecuted.
1 side have been subjugated for over 70 years through control over their land, air and sea - the other is a nation backed by the most powerful nations in the world, filled with a lot of foreigners that lay claim to that place due to something that happened 2,000 years ago.

Guess which side was deemed the baddies because they lashed out?

No sympathy for why the foreigners showed up huh.
Go read how they showed up.
