Arrest warrants issued for Israeli PM Netanyahu and former defence secretary Gallant and senior Hamas commander over alleged war crimes An arrest warrant was also issued for Hamas leader Mohammed Deif, whom Israel claims to have killed earlier this year.

The UK Govt needs to stop selling arms to these genocidal maniacs and commit to enforce the ICC arrest warrants.
