An Israeli minister has called for the reestablishing of settlements in besieged Gaza after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant.

The far-right minister also framed the resettlement initiative as a direct response to the ICC's arrest warrants, which accuse Netanyahu and Gallant of war crimes and crimes against humanity during Israel's ongoing genocidal war in Gaza.
