UK Appeals to ICC May Delay Arrest Warrants for Israeli Leaders

A submission by the UK to the International Criminal Court could delay arrest warrants for Israeli leaders Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. The UK argues, based on the Oslo Accords, that the ICC cannot exercise jurisdiction over Israelis. Experts suggest this could unjustly delay justice for victims of alleged war crimes in Gaza.
A submission by the UK to the International Criminal Court (ICC) could delay arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes in Gaza.

The ICC allowed the UK to provide legal arguments on whether the court has jurisdiction over Israeli nationals given the Oslo Accords, which the UK argues do not grant Palestinian authorities the authority to prosecute Israelis.

This intervention could slow down the ongoing investigation into alleged crimes committed on Palestinian territory begun in 2021.

Experts have voiced concerns that the UK's intervention is unjust and may delay justice for victims.
