WARSAW (Dispatches) – Hundreds of people have marched in Warsaw to protest against the Polish government’s confirmation that it won’t arrest Zionist prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he visits the country. 
In November, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former war minister, Yoav Gallant, on charges of committing war crimes in Gaza. 
On Thursday, the office of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced that Warsaw would not arrest Netanyahu if the Zionist regime official travels to Poland for the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi Auschwitz death camp during World War II.
Protesters rallied outside the Presidential Chancellery building, waving Palestinian flags and posters with anti-Netanyahu slogans.
Because the ICC lacks any police force or enforcement powers of its own, it relies on the countries that signed the Rome Statute to enforce its warrants. 
Poland signed the treaty. 
Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur, on Friday called on Poland to uphold the principles of universal justice by arresting Netanyahu if he visits the country.
Her statement highlighted the importance of consistent application of international law.
Albanese’s remarks were a response to Poland’s earlier condemnation of Mongolia for failing to detain Russian President Vladimir Putin under an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant.
“ICC members are obliged to arrest persons subject to an #ICC warrant,” Albanese wrote. “Poland, which condemned Mongolia for not arresting Pr. Putin, should arrest PM Netanyahu, if he visits. Selective application of the law erodes the universality of international justice and multilateralism.”
Since Oct. 7, 2023, Palestinian civilians have been subjected to a brutal Israeli military campaign, which has killed more than 46,000 people, mostly women and children, and injured over 109,000.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on the enclave.
