The spokesperson for the International Criminal Court said today (Sunday) that the warrants issued for the arrest of Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Gallant last week could be rescinded if Israel proved it conducted a "serious" investigation of the allegations at the national level.

Israel responded to the issuing of the warrants by calling the decision antisemitic, while the Attorney General argued that the International Criminal Court has no jurisdiction to handle the case of the war, since Israel is not a signatory to the Rome Treaty and Palestine is not a state.

While some countries have said they are bound to arrest Netanyahu if he arrives in their territory - including the United Kingdom and Canada - others have refused to do so, including Hungary and Argentina.
