The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant, making them subject to arrest in over 100 countries. The decision, which was announced by Chief Justice Karim Khan, has been criticized as an attack on Israel and a form of 'lawfare'. The ICC ruling accuses Netanyahu and Gallant of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, including using starvation as a method of warfare and intentionally directing attacks against civilians. The charges have been widely condemned by leaders in Israel, the US, and other democratic states.
