Jerusalem expects the International Criminal Court to issue more warrants against Israeli officials, says a “senior Israeli official” briefing reporters during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s trip to Hungary.

Netanyahu and Hungarian PM Viktor Orban called Trump from Hungary yesterday and discussed ways to take measures against the ICC and its chief prosecutor, the Israeli official says.

The ICC has outstanding warrants for Netanyahu and former defense minister Yoav Gallant over alleged war crimes in Gaza.
