The British government has decided not to oppose the International Criminal Court's application for an arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over alleged war crimes in Gaza. The UK's new Labour government confirmed that they will not pursue the proposal put forth by the previous government, stating that it is a matter for the court to decide on.
ICC prosecutor Karim Khan has sought arrest warrants for Netanyahu, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and three Hamas leaders for charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity. If the warrants are granted, Netanyahu and others could face arrest when traveling to ICC member countries.
