Israeli President Herzog Faces Criminal Complaints in Switzerland

Complaints lodged during Herzog's visit to Davos amidst accusations of Israeli war crimes in Gaza.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog is the subject of criminal complaints lodged in Switzerland during his visit to the World Economic Forum in Davos.
The nature of the complaints, their number, and who lodged them have not been disclosed by the Office of the Swiss Attorney General.
The complaints come amidst accusations of war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, with South Africa having filed a lawsuit with the International Court of Justice accusing Israel of genocide.
Herzog has rejected these accusations, calling them 'atrocious and preposterous', and has presented Israel's position on the situation in Gaza at the World Economic Forum.
The Israeli offensive in Gaza, launched in response to attacks by Hamas, has resulted in a significant humanitarian crisis, displacing most of the enclave's 2.3 million people.
