Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu plans to appeal arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for him and former defense minister Yoav Gallant. The warrants accuse them of crimes against humanity related to actions in Gaza. Netanyahu described the warrants as "absurd" and "anti-Semitic." He announced that Israel has submitted a notice to the ICC to appeal and requested a delay in executing the warrants. This development follows a recent ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, but conflicts continue in Gaza and Syria. The situation remains tense, with ongoing violence in the region.
