The International Criminal Court's (ICC's) arrest warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant, and Deif is "an extremely significant step," Ireland's Taoiseach said.

The Tánaiste has said that Ireland would arrest the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, after a warrant was issued for his arrest.

Ireland would be prepared to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he came to the country following the International Criminal Court arrest warrant issued on Thursday, Prime Minister Simon Harris said.

Yes, absolutely. We support international courts and enforce their warrants,” Harris said when asked whether Netanyahu would be detained if he entered Ireland, according to a Reuters report on Nov. 22.

Foyle MP Colum Eastwood has welcomed the issuance by the International Criminal Court (ICC) of arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant while Taoiseach Simon Harris has said the Israeli leaders will be arrested if they travel to Ireland.
