The Israeli government called an 'emergency discussion' over concerns the International Criminal Court could be preparing an arrest warrant for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders over alleged breaches of international law in Gaza, it has been revealed.

Three ministers and several government legal experts met at the Prime Minister's Office on Tuesday to discuss how they would manage arrest warrants after reportedly receiving information such orders could be issued imminently, according to Israeli Channel 12.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz, Justice Minister Yariv Levin and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer reportedly met and decided to seek support from international diplomatic circles in an effort to foil possible action against Netanyahu.

Numerous bodies have alleged Israel has breached international law in its retaliatory campaign in Gaza since the Hamas-led October 7 attacks.

Israel reportedly fears that arrest warrants would be brought on the basis of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where rights groups and international bodies continue to warn of impending 'man made famine', alleging deliberate restrictions of aid into the Strip.

Israel faces a number of allegations pertaining to breaches of international law over its conduct in Gaza since October 2023.

In February, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights published a damning report calling for accountability for both Israel and various Palestinian militant groups over alleged violations of international law.

These covered the period November 1, 2022 to October 31, 2023, but also referenced historical allegations of rights violations.

'For over 56 years, the Occupied Palestinian Territory – the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and Gaza – has remained under occupation by Israel, affecting all rights of Palestinians, including the right to self-determination,' the report read.

'The human rights situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory drastically worsened during the reporting period. There was an escalation of the use of lethal force in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and May 2023 also saw an escalation of hostilities in Gaza.'

The British government in December called on Israel to 'take immediate and concrete steps to tackle record high settler violence in the occupied West Bank'.

The UN High Commissioner's report suggested Israel had committed war crimes and violations of international law, including the 'wanton destruction of civilian property', collective punishment, punitive and deliberate sieges, 'deprivation of essential services' such as water and aid, and forced displacement. ...

Bibi locked women and children into Gaza -
wouldn't let them go and
then dropped 30,000 tons of bombs on top of them.

What's the penalty for crimes against humanity?

At Nuremberg they hanged them.

Netanyahu and his cohorts should hang.

Has Israel committed state suicide?

There are more. What about the companies and the people who made the bombs; who transported the bombs; the spox who lied for Biden daily?

Then there is Biden himself for approving money and weapons for Israel despite his knowledge that genocide was occurring. Biden's own calls for a ceasefire are self-incriminating.

There could be a decade of prosecutions.
