Downing Street has indicated that Benjamin Netanyahu could face arrest if he enters the UK after an international arrest warrant was issued for him and his former defence minister Yoav Gallant over alleged war crimes in Gaza. The UK government stated that it would comply with its legal obligations as set out by domestic and international law. However, it refused to comment on specific cases. The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued the arrest warrants, and the UK has never used its domestic process linked to ICC arrest warrants because no one wanted by the court has visited the country. The warrants are unlikely to have a significant impact as Israel and the US, its major ally, are not members of the ICC.
