UK Government Drops Objection to ICC Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant
Jul 26, 2024, 12:32 PM
The new British government, led by Prime Minister Keir Starmer, has decided to drop the previous administration’s objections to the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) request for arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes. This shift marks a significant change in the UK’s stance on the matter, diverging from the previous Conservative government's approach. The decision underscores the Labour government's willingness to support the ICC's jurisdiction in pursuing accountability for alleged war crimes. The ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, is seeking these warrants as part of investigations into actions in Gaza. The move aligns with the new government's broader policy shift on Israel-Gaza issues.
