Global Tensions Rise as ICC Issues Arrest Warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif for war crimes and crimes against humanity. While the warrants complicate international travel for Netanyahu and Gallant, immediate arrest is unlikely as Israel and the US are not ICC signatories. The warrants may strain diplomatic relations and affect military aid, particularly from European countries. The charges, which include blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza, will persist without a statute of limitations.
