The arrest warrants for Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Gallant mark a significant moment, as leaders of a Western democracy face accusations of war crimes.
This situation signifies that institutions such as the International Criminal Court are perceived less as Western tools, reflecting changing dynamics between the global North and South.
