Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni says that she and two of her ministers had been reported to the International Criminal Court for alleged “complicity in genocide” in connection with Israel’s war in Gaza.
Israel denies accusations that it is committing genocide in the war-torn enclave, where it is seeking to destroy Hamas.
Speaking in an interview with state television company RAI, Meloni says Defense Minister Guido Crosetto and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani had been denounced, and “I think” also Roberto Cingolani, the head of defense group Leonardo.
