The plane carrying Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Florida for talks with U.S. President Donald Trump passed through the airspace of three countries that are parties to the International Criminal Court, despite an active ICC arrest warrant against the Israeli leader.
Flight tracking data from FlightRadar24 showed Netanyahu’s aircraft, known as “Wings of Zion,” crossed the airspace of Greece, Italy and France before reaching the Atlantic Ocean.
All three countries are signatories to the Rome Statute, which obliges member states to cooperate with ICC arrest warrants.
Probably something like that, yeah.
Countries have been known to do much worse to arrest people wanted for MUCH lesser crimes 🤷
They pulled down the Bolivian President’s plane just on the mere suspicion thet Edward Snowden was on board.
The flight was rerouted to Austria when Italy, France, and Spain denied the flight access to their airspace.
So we know it’s possible.
sure but… boliva doesn’t have nukes
