Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a video statement labelling the International Criminal Court’s decision to seek arrest warrants against him and Israel’s defence minister “a complete distortion of reality”.
ICC prosecutor Karim Khan on Monday applied to have arrest warrants issued for Mr Netanyahu and Yoal Gallant as well as Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar, Mohammed Deif and Ismail Haniyeh, accusing them of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip and Israel.
