Boris Johnson has accused Sir Keir Starmer of “effectively standing with Hamas” over the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu. The former Tory prime minister claimed that the Government has “cravenly endorsed” the decision of the Hague-based court to issue arrest warrants for the Israeli leader as well as Yoav

The International Criminal Court said there were "reasonable grounds" to believe they bore responsibility for various crimes against humanity and war crimes.

Netanyahu condemned the arrest warrant against him, saying Israel “rejects with disgust the absurd and false actions.”
