The International Criminal Court (ICC) has officially issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif, accusing them of war crimes in the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict.
The warrants issued for the arrests of Netanyahu and Gallant are based upon "crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least 8 October, 2023 until at least 20 May, 2024," including "the war crime of starvation as a method of warfare; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution and other inhumane acts," according to the ICC.
