What would ICC arrest warrants against Benjamin Netanyahu mean for Israel? | Inside Story
Israel’s Prime Minister says nobody will stop its military actions – not even the International Criminal Court.
The ICC is investigating the country’s operations in Gaza and the Occupied West Bank – and could issue warrants for the arrest of Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders.
He says such a move would be outrageous – and set a dangerous precedent.
And the foreign minister insists the country won’t be deterred and will continue to fight.
The court’s Prosecutor says anyone who breaks the law will be held accountable.
But Israel is not part of the ICC, and does not recognise its jurisdiction.
