ICC prosecutor seeks arrest warrants for Israeli PM and Hamas officials
The Guardian — May 20, 2024, 04:00 PM UTC
The International Criminal Court's chief prosecutor seeks arrest warrants for Hamas and Israeli officials, including Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant, for war crimes. The move follows crimes committed during Hamas's 7 October attack and the Gaza war. Notably, no IDF officials are included. The ICC has previously issued warrants for leaders like Putin and Gaddafi. The process could take about two months. Israel faces growing international legal challenges over its actions in Gaza.
