"The attempt by ICC prosecutor Karim Khan to reverse the situation will not succeed. The parallel he drew between the Hamas terror organization and the State of Israel is despicable," Gallant said in a statement, referring to the arrest warrants also requested against leaders of the Palestinian Hamas movement.

The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, on Monday accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and three Hamas leaders - Yehya Sinwar, Mohammed Deif, and Ismail Haniyeh - of war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Gaza Strip and Israel.
