US President Joe Biden called the International Criminal Court’s arrest warrants for top Israeli leaders “outrageous” in a statement, AFP reports.
“Whatever the ICC might imply, there is no equivalence — none — between Israel and Hamas,” Biden said after the international tribunal issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former defence minister Yoav Gallant on suspicion of war crimes and crimes against humanity.
“We will always stand with Israel against threats to its security,” the president added.
