Israel is appealing the request by the ICC’s chief prosecutor for an arrest warrant against the country’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
The announcement by ICC prosecutor Karim Khan that he wants Netanyahu, Israel’s defense minister and three high-ranking leaders within terrorist-branded Hamas to be arrested came in May, among other things, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
In August, Khan’s office urged the court to take action “with the utmost urgency.” The court is still considering Khan’s application for an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and Gallant.
Khan’s accusations against Netanyahu and Gallant include, among other things, having deliberately “directed attacks against a civilian population”.

Sirens sound in Israel’s northern border areas on Friday afternoon. About a hundred rockets have been fired from Lebanon in rounds, according to the Israeli military.
The alarm went off at noon and in a first attack wave 60 rockets came, according to an Israeli statement. Within an hour, two more waves of rockets arrived, first with 70 and then with 20.

The Israeli Air Force attacked hundreds of targets on the other side of the border in Lebanon on Thursday. It happened at the same time as the supreme leader of the Islamist movement Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, gave a speech in which he vowed to avenge the explosions that occurred in thousands of pagers and other devices across Lebanon.

Therefore, the district court considers that the penalty should aim at what the penalty value for a completed murder would have given, says Agneta Karlsson, lawyer in a statement.
