(NewsNation) — President Donald Trump will issue an executive order Tuesday relating to International Criminal Court (ICC) sanctions, a White House official told NewsNation.

Trump is set to sign multiple executive orders Tuesday.

The ICC has been bracing for these measures and reportedly paid salaries three months in advance to shield some of its staff.

Last month, the House of Representatives voted to punish the court for issuing arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defense minister regarding the war in Gaza.

The move could have some tie to the Israeli prime minister visiting the White House later today.

Netanyahu and Trump are set to discuss phase two of the ceasefire today, with Netanyahu saying Tuesday, “The most important thing to President Trump is to get our hostages home.”
