Israeli and foreign officials fear that the International Criminal Court (I.C.C.) may soon issue arrest warrants for senior Israeli government officials and leaders of Hamas. The warrants could be related to the conflict with Hamas, with potential charges against Israelis for obstructing humanitarian aid to Gaza and responding excessively to Hamas attacks. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may be among those targeted. The I.C.C. has not commented on the matter, but the potential warrants could have significant global implications, affecting Israel's international standing and military policies. The I.C.C. is considering incidents since October 7, and its chief prosecutor has confirmed ongoing investigations. The court's warrants, if issued, would not immediately result in trials or arrests, but they could restrict travel for the officials named. The Israeli government maintains that it adheres to the laws of war and accuses Hamas of using civilian areas for military operations.
