Israel plans to challenge ICC arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant
Israel plans to appeal the International Criminal Court's (ICC) arrest warrants against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant. The warrants were issued last week on charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes related to actions in Gaza. In its notice to the ICC, Israel argues that the warrants lack factual and legal basis. The Israeli government also requested a delay in the execution of the warrants. Israel continues to reject the ICC's authority and the legitimacy of the arrest warrants.
