07.02.2025 โ‡ข ICC Defies While Grenfell Falls
โŒจTrump's sanctions against the ICC over its Israel-Hamas investigations prompted immediate international response, with the court vowing to continue its work despite US pressure. Throughout the day, dozens of countries voiced support for the ICC, though some notable allies remained silent.

The government's confirmation of Grenfell Tower's demolition sparked controversy among survivors, marking a significant shift in the building's post-fire legacy. Meanwhile, ITV pulled all Gino D'Acampo's shows following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct spanning 12 years.

By evening, attention turned to the Franco-British murder investigation, as new details suggested UK organized crime involvement in the death of a former financial investigator and spouse. The Swedish response to the ร–rebro shooting materialized in planned gun law reforms, while Hamas named the next three hostages for release, continuing the exchange process that began earlier in the week.
