ICC prosecutor seeks arrest warrant against Netanyahu and Hamas leader
Monday, 20 May 2024 A prosecutor at the International Criminal Court has applied for arrest warrants to be issued for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar over alleged war crimes.
The Hague-based court's top prosecutor is seeking arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, among others, on charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity.
In a bold move amid escalating tensions, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited a strategic peak in the newly seized Syrian territory. Defying strong warnings from Iran, Netanyahu declared that Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) will remain in the area until an arrangement ensuring Israel’s security is reached.
Joined by key military officials, including Defense Minister Israel Katz and IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Herzi Halevi, Netanyahu toured Mount Hermon, a crucial location for monitoring Hezbollah activities in Lebanon. The visit marks a significant step in Israel’s military operations in Syria, with the Golan Heights now playing a central role in securing Israel’s borders

In a provocative and chilling statement, Iran has called for the execution of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, escalating tensions between Tehran and Tel Aviv. The Iranian government has urged its Arab allies to take action in support of this call, sending shockwaves through Israel and further stoking fears of regional instability. The statement follows a series of heightened exchanges between Israel and Iran, with both nations engaged in a bitter conflict, especially in light of Israel’s ongoing military operations in Gaza. Tehran has also criticized international bodies, accusing them of failing to adequately address Israel’s actions and calling for greater cooperation among pro-Palestinian countries to seek justice. With the backdrop of mounting casualties and a looming humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Iran’s call for Netanyahu’s death has added a new, dangerous dimension to the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict.

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the attack was carried out in three waves using fixed-wing drones, with air defenses intercepting three and electronic warfare systems neutralizing another three. This unprecedented assault, deep within Russian territory and 1,379 kilometers from Ukraine, has escalated tensions further, drawing sharp condemnation from Moscow.
