The ICC issued\u00a0arrest warrants\u00a0on Thursday for Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant, accusing them of “crimes against humanity\u00a0and war crimes” committed between October 8, 2023, and May 20, 2024. The court stated there were “reasonable grounds” to believe the two men were “criminally responsible” for using starvation as a warfare tactic and intentionally targeting civilians.<\/p>\n
Netanyahu condemned the move as “anti-Semitic,” labeling the court’s accusations as “absurd and false.”<\/p>\n
China, which, like “Israel” and the United States, is not a member of the ICC, expressed support for any international efforts on the Palestinian issue that aim to achieve fairness, justice, and uphold the authority of international law.<\/p>\n
Lin also accused the United States of “double standards” after questions arose about its opposition to the ICC’s pursuit of Netanyahu while supporting a warrant against Russian President Vladimir Putin.<\/p>\n
