The International Criminal Court\u2019s (ICC) British prosecutor, Karim Khan, is poised to issue arrest warrants against Benjamin Netanyahu and senior Israeli officials over the war in Gaza, according to The Sunday Times newspaper in Britain and Israeli media.<\/p>\n

Haaretz analyst Amos Harel writes that the Israeli government is working under the assumption that the ICC\u2019s prosecutor, Karim Khan, may this week issue warrants for the arrest of Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.<\/p>\n

Israeli media platform Walla, stated that Israel and the United States are engaged in a last-ditch diplomatic effort to prevent the ICC from issuing the warrants adding that Netanyahu was \u201cunder unusual stress\u201d over the prospect.<\/p>\n

Should the United Nations (UN) tribunal in The Hague, follow through with the warrant it would mark an historic move and be a major deterioration in Israel\u2019s international status.<\/p>\n

In retaliation to the news, Netanyahu responded defiantly saying that any decisions by the ICC, which is investigating Hamas\u2019s October 7 attacks and Israel\u2019s military response in Gaza, would not affect Israel\u2019s actions but would set a dangerous precedent.<\/p>\n

This final statement by Netanyahu is pure provocative rhetoric and demonstrates his flagrant disregard and disrespect for international law and all international institutions.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Israel\u2019s Foreign Minister Israel Katz in an interview with N12 in Israel called the potential warrant an \u201cabsolute hypocrisy.\u201d<\/p>\n

With 124 permanent members, the ICC can prosecute individuals for war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and aggression.<\/p>\n

The ICJ, also known as the World Court, is a United Nations court that deals with disputes between states while the ICC is a treaty-based criminal court focusing on individual criminal responsibility for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide.<\/p>\n

The US, which, like Israel, is not among the 124 countries that signed the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, is pursuing every avenue to block the arrest warrants.<\/p>\n
