UK Labour expected to drop challenge to ICC over Netanyahu arrest warrant: report

The Guardian reports that the new Labour government is expected to drop a challenge recently submitted to the International Criminal Court questioning the court's request for an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The previous Conservative government had claimed that the ICC had no jurisdiction over Israeli nationals.

The Guardians says it now "appears highly unlikely that the new government will go ahead" with its claim.
