The European Union's foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell said on Tuesday that EU member states should comply with the international law and the arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Spain announced that it will comply with the arrest warrant for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued by the International Criminal Court if he appears on its territory. Spain declared its readiness to execute the arrest warrant for Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Galant, prompting ICC member states to execute the warrants and apprehend the war criminals within the occupied territories.

The ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant over war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in the Gaza Strip.

On Thursday the International Court of Justice (ICC) issued warrants for the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, as well as a member of Hamas leadership.

The Prime Minister of Israel noted that the State of Israel denies both the authority of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the legitimacy of the arrest warrants that have been issued against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israel urged the court to suspend the warrants against him and Yoav Gallant.

The ICC issued arrest warrants last Thursday for Netanyahu, his former defence chief, and Hamas military leader Ibrahim Al-Masri, known as Mohammed Deif, for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza conflict.
