UN war crimes court issues arrest order for Benjamin Netanyahu

On Thursday, The ICC have issued arrest warrants for Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence chief Yoav Gallant, for their responsibility of acts of murder, persecution and starvation as a weapon of war as part of a 'widespread and systematic attack against the civilian population of Gaza'.
The arrest warrants has also included Hamas leader, Mohammed Deif.
Both the US and Israel rejected the jurisdiction of the Hague-based court and deny war crimes in Gaza, while Netanyahu claimed that the decision is 'antisemitic'.
The ICC said Israel's acceptance of the court's jurisdiction was not required.
The European Union have voiced support for the arrest warrants, and the Dutch FM said that the Netherlands supports the warrant and would "100 percent" implement the Rome Statute.
