Nothing per se.

International “laws” isn’t actually laws as there isnt an executive branch. An international court can announce that an act is a violation but that’s where it ends. Other countries can denounce the act, apply sanctions and other diplomatic approaches (for instance, kicked Russia out of G7) but that’s on each member individually.
