The Chief Prosecutor International Crime Corps is seeking arrest warrants for Israeli
00:03
Prime Minister Netanyahu and Hamas leader Yehiya Sinar for alleged war crimes
00:08
during the recent seven month conflict.
00:09
The latest war between Israel and Hamas began on October 7th when
00:13
militants from Gaza crossed into Israel and killed some 1200 people,
00:19
mostly civilians and took 250 others hostage.
00:24
Since then, Israel has waged a brutal campaign to dismantle Hamas
00:28
in Gaza. More than 35,000 Palestinians have been killed in the
00:33
fighting. At least half of them women and Children.
00:36
According to the latest estimates by Gaza health officials,
00:39
the prosecutor accused Netanyahu other Israelis officials and three Hamas leaders of
00:43
committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
00:46
And Israel. Joe Biden wrote a statement this morning in response
00:49
to the arrest warrants.
00:50
The IC C prosecutor's application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is
00:53
outrageous and let me be clear,
00:55
whatever this prosecutor might imply.
00:57
There is no equivalence.
00:58
None between Israel and Hamas.
01:00
We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security.
01:03
End quote. That is bold.
01:07
That part, that last part that's crazy and he just made
01:13
that statement. So I'm like,
01:14
wondering how everyone's gonna react.
