The recent events surrounding the Gaza conflict have taken a new turn with the International Criminal Court (ICC) issuing arrest warrants for Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. These warrants accuse the Israeli officials of war crimes in Gaza, adding fuel to the already heated debate surrounding the conflict.
In a surprising move, the ICC also issued a warrant for a Hamas commander who Israel claims to have killed. This further complicates the situation, as both sides now face potential legal repercussions for their actions during the conflict.
Adding to the tension, the United States vetoed a Gaza ceasefire resolution at the UN, causing concern among world leaders about the potential consequences of prolonging the conflict. With the ICC warrants and the US veto, the question arises: what happens next in Gaza?
To delve deeper into these implications, Tom McRae hosts a panel of experts on the Inside Story program. Guests include human rights lawyer Michael Lynk, former UN Special Rapporteur for human rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Hala Rharrit, the first US career diplomat to resign over President Biden’s Gaza policies, and Shaina Low, a Communication Adviser in Palestine for the Norwegian Refugee Council.
The discussion is sure to shed light on the legal, diplomatic, and humanitarian aspects of the Gaza conflict, as well as the potential consequences of the recent developments involving the ICC warrants and the US veto at the UN.
