The International Criminal Court's chief prosecutor has requested arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, and three Hamas leaders for war crimes and crimes against humanity. If granted, these leaders risk arrest in any ICC signatory country. This move could indicate the ICC's willingness to prosecute leaders from Western powers and their allies. Both Israel and Hamas have condemned the requests.
