‼️🇵🇸🌍 A Compilation Of Positive Reactions To The ICC Move: Countries And Human Rights Groups

An Al Jazeera news post, it reads "Norway first European country to say it will arrest Netanyahu should a warrant be issued Norway’s Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide says that if the arrest warrant against Israel’s prime minister becomes a reality, Norway is obliged to arrest him. Yesterday, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court asked the court to issue arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, as well three Hamas officials including Yahya Sinwar. “If he or one of the Hamas leaders who are also indicted should appear in Norway, then we are obliged by international law to do so. The same applies to all countries in Europe with the exception of Turkey,” Eide told Norweigan broadcaster TV 2.

Another Al Jazeera news post, it reads "Era of impunity for Israel’s leaders is over, says Israeli rights group B’Tselem, a leading Israeli human rights group, has welcomed the ICC prosecutor’s request to seek arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant. “The era of impunity for Israeli decision-makers is over,” the group said in a statement. “The international community is signalling to Israel that it can no longer maintain its policy of violence, killing and destruction without accountability. Likewise, the request for arrest warrants against Hamas leaders for the crimes of October 7 is important and draws a red line where harm to civilians is concerned,” it said. “The ICC intervention and ICJ rulings are a chance for us, Israelis, to realize what we should have understood long ago: that upholding a regime of supremacy, violence and oppression necessarily involves crimes and severe violation of human rights.”"

Another Al Jazeera post, it reads "China hopes ICC will be 'objective' after warrants sought for Israeli, Hamas leaders China says it hopes the ICC will uphold an "objective" position after its chief prosecutor requested arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders. "It is hoped that the ICC will uphold its objective and impartial position and exercise its powers in accordance with the law," Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said, calling for an end to the "collective punishment of the Palestinian people" On Monday, ICC Prosecutor Karim Khan said he had requested arrest warrants for PM Netanyahu, defence chief Gallant and three Hamas leaders, including its chief Sinwar, over the alleged crimes committed in the October 7 attack and Israel's war on Gaza."

Another Al Jazeera post, it reads "Palestinian rights groups welcome ‘landmark’ ICC decision, call for additional genocide charge The rights organisations Al-Haq, Al Mezan, and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights said that ICC prosecutor Karim Khan’s decision to file an application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is “a crucial step” towards ending impunity in Israel’s war on Gaza. In a statement, the three organisations said the ICC announcement follows after “tireless efforts by Palestinian and international civil society organisations demanding the issuance of arrest warrants” for members of Israel’s war cabinet. “While we welcome the issuing of charges for crimes against humanity, there is also a public catalogue of genocidal statements of intent to destroy Palestinians in Gaza, including through the intentional denial of aid,” the organisations said. “For these reasons, genocide as an additional crime should be included in an amendment to the charges,” they added."

An Al Jazeera news post, it reads "France, Belgium and Slovenia say they support ICC move France, Belgium and Slovenia released statements supporting the world’s top criminal court and its chief prosecutor’s request for arrest warrants for leaders of Israel and Hamas. “France supports the International Criminal Court, its independence, and the fight against impunity in all situations,” its Foreign Ministry said in a statement. Belgium Minister of Foreign Affairs Hadja Lahbib posted on X, “Crimes committed in Gaza must be prosecuted at the highest level, regardless of the perpetrators,” along with a statement. “War crimes and crimes against humanity committed on the territory of Israel and Palestine from at least October 7 must be prosecuted independently and impartially regardless of the perpetrators,” Slovenia’s Foreign Ministry said on X. “Accountability is crucial to prevent atrocities and to guarantee peace,” the ministry said."

Another Al Jazeera post, it reads "‘Law must be applied equally’: South African president welcomes ICC move President Cyril Ramaphosa welcomes ICC Prosecutor Khan’s applications for arrest warrants for both Israel and Hamas leaders. “The law must be applied equally to all in order to uphold the international rule of law, ensure accountability for those that commit heinous crimes and protect the rights of victims,” Ramaphosa said in a statement. South Africa has brought a genocide case against Israel at another court in The Hague, the International Court of Justice."

Another Al Jazeera post, it reads "Swiss envoy to UN calls for ICC independence to be respected Speaking at a UN Security Council meeting on Rafah, Pascale Baeriswyl said Switzerland was “concerned about possible war crimes and recalls the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court”. She added Switzerland “fully supports the court and stresses the importance of respecting its independence”.
