The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, among others, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. The unprecedented move also targets Israel's defense minister and other leaders of Hamas. Former ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo and current prosecutor Karim Khan have both commented on the significance of these actions. Ocampo described the warrants as a 'game changer,' while Khan justified his decision in interviews with various media outlets, including Al Jazeera's UpFront with Marc Lamont Hill and a British newspaper. The ICC's decision aims to hold individuals accountable for international crimes and signals a significant step in international justice.
