It has noted the numerous atrocities committed in Syria, but as Syria is not a party to the Rome Statute, the ICC does not have jurisdiction to prosecute crimes committed in Syria. https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/statement-prosecutor-international-criminal-court-fatou-bensouda-alleged-crimes-committed-isis#:~:text=However%2C%20Syria%20and%20Iraq%20are,crimes%20committed%20on%20their%20soil.
