UK Intervention Delays ICC Arrest Warrant Decision for Netanyahu

The UK's legal challenge raises questions about the ICC's jurisdiction over Israeli officials, potentially stalling the process for months.

  • The UK argues that the ICC lacks jurisdiction over Israeli nationals due to the Oslo accords.
  • ICC judges have granted the UK and other countries until July 12 to submit legal arguments.
  • Experts express concerns that the UK's intervention is politically motivated and undermines accountability.
  • ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan seeks warrants for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
  • The delay could extend the arrest warrant process for Netanyahu and Gallant significantly.
