Turkey's Justice Ministry has asked its Interior Ministry to issue international arrest warrants for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli official Avick Moskovich, Shehab Wire reported. The request follows accusations that both men committed genocide and crimes against humanity against Palestinians.
The Turkish government has moved to pursue legal action through international channels against the Israeli leadership. The warrants target Netanyahu in his capacity as prime minister and Moskovich as an Israeli official, based on allegations connected to Palestinian deaths and displacement in Gaza and the broader occupied territories.
