Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh called on the International Criminal Court (ICC) to issue arrest warrants for Israeli officials over the ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip, Anadolu Agency reports.

“The ICC must issue arrest warrants for criminals as a precautionary step to stop the killing machine,” Shtayyeh said during a cabinet meeting in the West Bank city of Ramallah.

“I salute the countries that will submit referrals to the ICC to prosecute criminals,” he added, without providing any further details.

The Palestinian premier went on to call for action “to stop the (Israeli) aggression that has turned the Gaza Strip into a valley of blood.”
