The Hague, April 16, 2025 (WAFA) – The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Wednesday called on Hungary to provide clarification regarding its failure to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is wanted by international justice for committing crimes against humanity against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

In a statement, the ICC called on Hungary to submit a clarification memorandum by May 23, 2025, regarding its failure to comply with an arrest warrant previously issued by the ICC for Netanyahu in November 2024.

The court, headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands, stated that Netanyahu arrived in Hungary on April 3, 2025, and remained there until April 6.

The Hungarian authorities have not issued an immediate response to the court’s request submitted earlier today.
