UK government says Netanyahu could face arrest over ICC warrant
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could face arrest in the UK after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for him and former defense minister Yoav Gallant over alleged war crimes in Gaza. Downing Street confirmed it would fulfill its legal obligations regarding the warrant but did not comment on whether Netanyahu would be detained if he entered the UK. The government emphasized its commitment to comply with the International Criminal Court Act 2001. The UK government respects the ICC's independence and is focused on advocating for a ceasefire in Gaza. The impact of the warrants will depend on whether ICC member states choose to enforce them.
