Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that if the International Criminal Court issues arrest warrants for Israeli government officials on charges related to the war against “Hamas”, it would be a scandal of historic proportions, Reuters reported.
„The possibility of them issuing war crimes arrest warrants to IDF commanders and heads of state, this possibility is a scandal of historic proportions,” Netanyahu said.
„I want to make one thing clear: no decision, neither in The Hague nor anywhere else, will deter our determination to achieve all our military objectives: the release of all hostages, a total victory over “Hamas” and a promise that Gaza will never again be a threat to Israel”, Netanyahu said.
