According to the BBC: > A warrant was also issued for [Hamas military commander] Mohammed Deif, although the Israeli military has said he was killed in an air strike in Gaza in July. [0] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly2exvx944o
Most news reports are treating this as a single story, but posting the original source seems a good idea in this case; it just happens to be split across two URLs.

I m afraid this fruitless pursuit will distract from the effort to stop the cleansing, which has to be diplomatic and international
How is this 'flagged'?
I've turned the flags off now, in keeping with HN's standard practices: some (but only some) stories with political overlap are allowed, and in the case of a Major Ongoing Topic (MOT) we prefer the stories that contain Significant New Information (SNI).

When was the last time a head of state was arrested by the ICC?
Now, imposing "justice" obviously only works when you do it to small nations like Yugoslavia or Rwanda. Of course it will not apply to the Israel leader, let alone to somebody from even more powerful nation.
This shouldn't be flagged.
Why not? How is it “hacker news” at all? It’s just news news.
This approach has been stable for many years and there's no intention to allow HN to become a primarily-political site (quite the contrary) but it also doesn't work to try to exclude these things altogether.
> The Chamber issued warrants of arrest for two individuals, Mr Benjamin Netanyahu and Mr Yoav Gallant, for crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024 And things got much worse in the latter part of 2024. Even if the court didn't take into account facts after 20 May 2024, ample evidence already existing by then was already enough to issue the warrants. Whe…
