Karim Khan KC said there were reasonable grounds to believe that both men bore criminal responsibility for war crimes and crimes against humanity from the day of Hamas’s attack on Israel on 7 October onwards.

Maybe I’m missing something, but when someone commits a war crime (or in this case multiple war crimes), are the things they have done not criminal acts? Did the BBC edit their article afterwards to assert they are war crimes?

They also write that Karim Khan calls Israel’s war a “war of extermination.”
