International Criminal Court issues arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, Yoav Gallant and Mohammed Deif

ABC  

The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former defence minister Yoav Gallant, as well as senior Hamas official Mohammed Deif. It said there are also reasonable grounds to believe he's responsible for "the war crimes of murder, cruel treatment, torture; taking hostages; outrages upon personal dignity; and rape and other form of sexual violence". But a White House Security Council spokesman said the United States "fundamentally rejects" the court's decision to issue warrants against the Israeli officials. Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett called the ICC's decision to issue arrest warrants against Mr Netanyahu and his former defence minister a "mark of shame".
