Aljazeera English has been told by a source familiar with the investigation at the ICC that arrest warrants against Israeli and possibly Palestinians will be issued soon.

Names aren’t known but the expectation from them is that the warrants will be for low-ranking officials.

Israel media, however, has been reporting that the leadership is increasingly worried by the prospect of arrest warrants against PM Benjamin Netanyahu and other political and military leaders, for alleged breaches of international law in Gaza.

According to Channel 12 news, three ministers and several government legal experts held an “emergency discussion” at the Prime Minister’s Office on Tuesday about how to fend off the potential warrants.
