Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Saturday praised the "courageous decision" of the International Criminal Court (ICC) to seek the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant.
"We support the arrest warrant. We consider it important that this courageous decision be carried out by all country members of the accord to renew the trust of humanity in the international system," Erdoğan said in a speech in Istanbul. The ICC issued the warrants against the Israeli leaders on Thursday on charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes in the Gaza conflict.
