About 100 Chilean lawyers have filed a complaint before the International Criminal Court (ICC) against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accusing him of committing crimes against humanity, genocide, and war crimes in Gaza.

The Middle East Monitor, citing Quds Press, reported that the complaint, presented on December 22 in The Hague, was led by former Ambassador Nelson Hadad.
