Israeli PM due to fly to International Criminal Court member state this week

Amnesty International has called on Hungary to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, following reports that he will visit the EU member state on Wednesday at the invitation of his Hungarian counterpart Viktor Orban.

Netanyahu is the subject of an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court in November over Israel’s conduct in Gaza.

Orban, a close ally of Netanyahu, has said he would not enforce the warrant.
As a member state, Hungary is required to enforce any arrest warrant issued by the ICC.

Visit ‘must not become a bellwether for the future of human rights in Europe’
