Criticising arrest bid for Netanyahu a 'huge mistake', former ICC prosecutor says
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has faced heavy criticism from Israel, the US, Germany and Canada since it announced it was seeking warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and his Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, as well as Hamas leaders, for war crimes and crimes against humanity. In an interview with FRANCE 24, former ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo called the reactions "disappointing", saying launching attacks on the court's decision instead of focusing on the crimes themselves was a "huge mistake".
