ICC Rejects Israel's Appeal Against Arrest Warrants
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has dismissed Israel's appeal against arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
Despite allegations of misconduct against its top prosecutor, the ICC is proceeding with its war-crimes case against Israeli leaders. The court rejected Israel's request to halt the warrant process while judges consider a broader challenge to the court's jurisdiction.
Notably, Israel is not a signatory to the Rome Statute and therefore not subject to the ICC's authority. However, the court ruled that
"the issue, as framed by Israel, is not an appealable issue", according to AFP.
The decision was made on Friday, with the ICC doubling down on its case against the leaders of the only democracy fighting Hamas.
- Israel is not a signatory to the Rome Statute
- The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant
- The court has rejected Israel's appeal against the warrants
Author's summary: ICC rejects Israel's appeal against arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant.
