Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that if the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli officials on charges related to the conduct of its war, this would be a “scandal on a historic scale.”

Netanyahu said, "The possibility of issuing arrest warrants against Israeli army commanders and state leaders on charges of committing war crimes would be a scandal on a historic scale."

He added, "I want to make one thing clear: No decision, neither in The Hague nor anywhere else, will affect our determination to achieve all the goals of the war - the release of all hostages, complete victory over Hamas, and the pledge that Gaza will no longer pose any threat to Israel." .
