International Criminal Court issues arrest warrants for Netanyahu and others over Gaza war crimes
The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas leader Mohammed Deif. This follows a 10-month investigation into alleged war crimes during the Gaza war. This marks the first time a leader from a modern democracy has been charged with such crimes by a global judicial body. The warrants could impact Israel's international standing, though they are not expected to affect ongoing military actions. The situation raises questions about how allies like the U.S. and U.K. will respond. The implications for Israel and its leaders remain uncertain.
