Prime Minister Keir Starmer has backed the ICC’s issuing of arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and his former defence minister, Yoav Gallant. The ICC says both men – alongside a Hamas leader who was killed in July – bore “criminal responsibility” for crimes during the war between Israel and Hamas. The court accuses Israel of using starvation as a war tactic and for intentionally targeting civilians.
Europe and the US have been split in their response to the warrant. European countries including Britain have said they respect the ICC decisions and note Netanyahu will be arrested if he steps foot into their countries. The Canadian prime minister also confirmed he will follow the ruling of the ICC. The US has backed Israel and called the warrant ‘outrageous.’
Tributes are continuing to pour in for ex-deputy prime minister John Prescott, who died aged 86.
