Global Tensions Rise Over ICC's Netanyahu Arrest Warrant

TL;DR Summary
Rights groups Al-Haq and the Global Legal Action Network are pressuring the UK government to halt arms exports to Israel after the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant. The groups argue that UK-made components for F-35 fighter jets are being used in alleged war crimes against Palestinians, including the intentional starvation of civilians in Gaza. They have given the UK government until Friday to suspend these exports or face a court order for an emergency injunction.
