Netanyahu Grapples With Backtrack, Praises Security Officials After Tweet Dispute
PM Deletes Tweet, Praises Security Officials
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has deleted a tweet claiming he was not warned of a recent Hamas attack and has praised security officials for their work. The tweet, which was posted on Tuesday, was met with criticism from some who accused Netanyahu of trying to shift blame for the attack away from himself. Netanyahu later deleted the tweet and replaced it with a new one praising security officials for their work.
Polarizing Figure in Israeli History
Netanyahu has been one of the most polarizing leaders in Israel's history. His supporters praise him for his strong leadership and his commitment to Israel's security. His critics accuse him of being divisive and of inciting violence against Palestinians. Netanyahu has been in power for more than a decade, and he is currently facing a number of legal challenges, including charges of corruption and obstruction of justice.
International Criminal Court Investigation
The International Criminal Court (ICC) is currently investigating allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by both Israeli and Palestinian forces. The ICC's chief prosecutor, Fatou Bensouda, has said that she believes there is enough evidence to open a full-scale investigation into these allegations.
