The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued secret arrest warrants against five Israeli officials, including three politicians and two military personnel, Israeli newspaper Haaretz said on Sunday, Anadolu reports.

The report came as The Hague-based court already issued arrest warrants in November 2024 against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

There has been no immediate statement from the ICC regarding the report. If confirmed, this would bring to seven the number of Israeli officials facing arrests by the court.

The Israeli army has killed more than 72,000 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 172,000 in a two-year war on the Gaza Strip since October 2023.

The army continues its attacks despite a ceasefire that took effect on Oct. 10, 2025, killing over 870 people and injuring more than 2,540 others, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Witch’s cat

Spread the love

Black cat Spider passed today at age fifteen. His life is celebrated at it’s conclusion, he had a good life and was the best of cats.
Edit: Shall we get real here? I asked for him to be euthanised and it was done. It’s a difficult decision with your loved ones. You obviously don’t want them in pain (and that was very important for me).

I loved my cat Spider. I also had respect for him and would not see him suffer Xl

Human Rights Watch said reports detailing sexual violence against Palestinian prisoners in Israeli detention facilities are consistent with findings from previous investigations conducted by the organisation and other rights groups.

The statement was made by deputy Director of Human Rights Watch and its representative to the European Union institutions, Claudio Francavilla in remarks to Anadolu Agency on Wednesday.

Francavilla said information published in a report by Nicholas Kristof regarding sexual abuse and rape of Palestinian detainees in Israeli prisons corresponds with evidence previously documented by Human Rights Watch and other organisations.

He called for impartial and transparent investigations, fair legal proceedings and unrestricted access for the International Committee of the Red Cross and independent monitors to all Israeli detention facilities.

Francavilla also urged the European Union to take concrete measures to pressure Israeli authorities to halt what he described as ongoing grave human rights violations and ensure accountability.

The comments came after The New York Times published a report alleging that Palestinian men and women detained in Israeli prisons had been subjected to multiple forms of sexual violence.

Israel criticised the report following its publication on Monday.
