Israel to appeal ICC arrest warrant for Prime Minister Netanyahu
Israel plans to appeal to the International Criminal Court (ICC) regarding an arrest warrant issued for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Israeli government describes the warrant as "baseless" and lacking factual or legal support. This move marks a significant step in Israel's response to the ICC's actions. Previously, Israel had not formally challenged the warrant in this manner. The appeal reflects ongoing tensions between Israel and the ICC, which has been investigating alleged war crimes in the region. Israel has consistently rejected the court's jurisdiction over its actions.
