"Swiss Authorities Receive 'Criminal Complaints' Against Israeli President Herzog"

Swiss prosecutors have confirmed the filing of criminal complaints against Israeli President Isaac Herzog during his visit to the World Economic Forum in Davos, with the nature and number of the complaints undisclosed. The complaints may be related to Israel's actions in Gaza, and if prosecuted, the case would be dealt with under "universal jurisdiction," allowing states or international organizations to file legal complaints against individuals for serious crimes regardless of their nationality or where the alleged crime was committed. The obstacles to such a case include the alleged immunity of a president and the need for political approval.
