ICC denies issuing new arrest warrants against Israeli officials

 The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Sunday denied a report by Israeli newspaper Haaretz claiming that it had issued new arrest warrants against five Israeli political and military officials over alleged crimes against Palestinians.

ICC spokesperson Fadi El Abdallah said in a statement to journalists that the report was “inaccurate”, stressing that the court denies issuing any new arrest warrants “in the current situation in the State of Palestine”.

Earlier on Sunday, Haaretz reported, citing an unnamed diplomatic source, that the court in The Hague had issued secret arrest warrants against three Israeli political officials and two military officials, before the ICC later denied the report.
