Britain drops its challenge to ICC arrest warrants for Israeli leaders

Labour has taken a significant step in changing the UK’s Middle East policy by dropping its opposition to an international arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, despite U.S. pressure.

Downing Street announced it would not challenge the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC), where Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan seeks a warrant against Netanyahu.

This move increases the likelihood of the ICC granting the request, potentially leading to Netanyahu’s arrest if he travels abroad.

The decision marks a reversal from the previous government’s staunch support of Israel and alignment with U.S. policy, The Guardian has reported.
