U.S. Slams ICC's War Crimes Charges Against Israel; Biden Calls Actions "Outrageous"| WATCH

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension. #ICC #Israel #Netanyahu #WarCrimes #Biden #Pentagon #USPolicy #InternationalLaw #Hamas #IsraelDefense #ICCJurisdiction #InternationalNews #InternationalRelations #Oneindia #OneindiaNews ~HT.318~PR.362~ED.101~GR.344~
