PM Netanyahu should be prosecuted for war crimes, the leader of the Podemos party has said
Both Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas terrorists need to be tried by the International Criminal Court (ICC), Spanish politician Ione Belarra said on Monday. The minister for social rights spoke as the leader of Podemos, a junior partner in the ruling coalition.
„Israel is carrying out a planned genocide“ in Gaza by leaving hundreds of thousands of Palestinians without water, food, and electricity, Belarra claimed, describing this as a serious breach of international law and a possible war crime.
She also accused Israel of „unspeakable hypocrisy“ for what she described as using the horrific murders of civilians by Hamas to justify its own atrocities, both in general and against Gaza in particular.
In a five-minute video message broadcast on social media, Belarra accused Netanyahu’s government of „apartheid and occupation“ of the Palestinians, encouraged and enabled by the US and the EU.
