The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas leader Mohammed Deif for alleged war crimes.
The court's chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, requested the arrest warrants, stating there are reasonable grounds to believe Netanyahu and Gallant caused mass starvation in Gaza, constituting war crimes.
Israel's foreign minister, Gideon Saar, stated that the warrants lack authority as Israel is not a member of the International Criminal Court.
The ICC upheld its ruling's legitimacy, asserting that international humanitarian law applies to Israel and Palestine due to their status as High Contracting Parties to the Geneva Conventions.
