Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir took to X to criticise the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and the former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant.

The national security minister slammed the decision, calling it an “unprecedented disgrace, but not at all surprising”.

“The International Criminal Court in The Hague shows once again that it is anti-Semitic through and through,” Ben-Gvir wrote. “This is complete system madness. I support the Prime Minister in the just war.”

He added that the ideal response to the court’s decision is “applying sovereignty over all the territories of Judea and Samaria (the West Bank), settlement in all parts of the country and severing ties with the terrorist authority (the Palestinian Authority), including sanctions”.
