Several Israeli officials have responded to the ICC’s arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant.
In a post on X, Israel’s opposition leader Yair Lapid condemned the court’s decision, characterising Israel’s war on Gaza as a fight for its life “against terrorist oganisations”.
Israel’s former Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman also spoke out against the ruling, writing on X that it shows the international community’s “double standards and hypocrisy”.
“The state of Israel will not apologise for protecting its citizens and is committed to continuing to fight terrorism without compromise,” said Lieberman.
