Amal Clooney could be barred from entering the US by Donald Trump, according to reports.

The British human rights barrister, who is married to George Clooney, could be sanctioned by the US president after a panel she sat on recommended an arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, on war crimes charges in Gaza.

Lawyers involved in the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) decision to issue the warrant, including Baroness Helena Kennedy and Lord Justice Adrian Fulford, have been warned by the Foreign Office they could be barred from the US, The Financial Times reports.

It is currently unclear whether Mrs Clooney has been cautioned, but she was a member of the panel which recommended prosecutor Karim Khan issue an arrest warrant for Mr Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, then Israel’s defence minister.

In February, Mr Trump used an executive order to sanction Mr Khan, banning him and his family from the country and seizing his US assets, and warned further measures could follow against “those responsible for the ICC’s transgressions”.
