An Israeli attack on Beit Lahiya, a town in northern Gaza, killed at least 73 Palestinians on Saturday evening, according to the enclave's government media office.

More than 100 others were wounded and several people missing.

Israeli air strikes targeted a multi-floor building and damaged a number of nearby houses, medics in the Gaza Strip reported.

The government media office said that Israeli forces had bombed overcrowded residential areas in Beit Lahiya, adding that women and children were amongst the casualties.

Doesn't he literally have one from the ICC? And the US Govt sanctioned the ICC over it rather than help enforce it?

They opened the process up for "comments and objections". Israels allies like Germany flooded the court with "comments and objections" that have to be worked through, before deciding on the warrant.

Germany once again is on the wrong side of history. There's something rotten in the water in the Rhine.

It's actually conservatism and classic white supremacy, but the sentiment is appreciated.

16 years of Merkel really had us fooled about the fact that her party would be almost begging to jump on the far-right populist train and cut the brakes under today's leadership.
