ICC Rejects Israel's Appeal Against Arrest Warrants
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has rejected Israel's appeal against arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
The ICC's decision was made despite Israel's request to halt the warrant process while judges deliberate on a broader challenge to the court's jurisdiction.
The issue, as framed by Israel, is not an appealable issue
Israel is not a signatory to the Rome Statute and therefore not legally subject to the ICC's claimed authority.
The ICC's top prosecutor faces misconduct allegations, but the court has doubled down on its war-crimes case against the leaders of Israel, the only democracy fighting Hamas.
Author's summary: ICC rejects Israel's appeal against arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant.
