Israel’s reported list of potential subjects of war crimes investigations include both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Benny Gantz
Israel has reportedly produced a secret list containing the names of hundreds of citizens potentially liable for prosecution for war crimes., which was first reported by Haaretz, comes as Israel fears possible investigation by the International Criminal Court for abuses in occupied Palestinian territories, such as Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem.
Palestinians have long complained about measures used by the Israelis to punish ordinary civilians, such as excessive force and collective punishment. The list allegedly pertains to Israeli actions during the 2014 Gaza War, in which more than 2,000 Palestinians, mostly civilians, were killed. Livni was able to avoid mandatory questioning by obtaining emergency diplomatic immunity and declining the - then voluntary- summons to be questioned.
