Arrest warrants issued for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant | LBC

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, Yoav Gallant, his former defence minister, and a Hamas leader.

Tayab Ali International Crime Lawyer and Director of the International Centre of Justice for Palestinians - who submitted evidence to the ICC as part of this case - joins Tom Swarbrick to discuss the news.

The warrants are “for crimes against humanity and war crimes” over the war in Gaza and the October 7 attacks on Israel, the court, based in The Hague, said.

The decision turns Mr Netanyahu and the others into internationally wanted suspects and is likely to further isolate them and complicate efforts to negotiate a ceasefire to end the 13-month Gaza conflict.
