France and Belgium support the ICC seeking arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders.

France and Belgium have expressed their support for the International Criminal Court (ICC) after its prosecutor sought arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders. The ICC prosecutor, Karim Khan, announced on Monday that he has filed an application with the ICC for arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh, Hamas Gaza chief Yahya Sinwar, and Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif. While US President Joe Biden denounced the equivalent of Israel with the terrorist group Hamas, France has backed the ICC's independence and fight against impunity in all situations.
