Amnesty International called on US authorities to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his Washington visit and hand him over to the ICC on an existing arrest warrant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Netanyahu met with US President Donald Trump, who had previously stated that no arrest would occur, amid ongoing controversy over the ICC warrant issued in November 2024.

The United States and Israel are not parties to the Rome Statute.

Reliability assessment

Single source provides direct attribution to Amnesty International's public statement with concrete details on the ICC warrant and meeting; the verifiable fact is that Amnesty made the call

The source language mixes facts with framing or advocacy wording. Khaama Press: "major point of international legal and political controversy", "highlights the gap between the position of the US and Israel and that of countries that recognise the court’s authority" — these phrases frame the US/Israel stance as an outlier in a negative light and inject mild advocacy for ICC enforcement.
