OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has not yet weighed in on a push from the International Criminal Court to prosecute his Israeli counterpart and others over the war in the Gaza Strip.

The court's chief prosecutor requested arrest warrants Monday for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his defence minister and senior Hamas leaders.

Trudeau and Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly have yet to comment, but some vocal Liberal MPs are issuing statements. Anthony Housefather argues the decision is drawing a moral equivalency"between the leaders of a recognized terrorist organization and the elected leaders of a democratic state."
