(ANSA) - ROME, NOV 27 - Italy will conduct an in-depth analysis on possible immunity for Benjamin Netanyahu after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for suspected Gaza war crimes against the Israeli prime minister, Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani told the House Wednesday.
    "We have taken note of the decision of the ICC on the arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Gallant, but we believe it is essential to examine in detail the reasons for such decisions", he told question time.
    For this reason, said the centre-right Forza Italia (FI) leader and deputy premier, "we are carrying out legal investigations in conjunction with other EU countries also in relation to the prevalence of general international law over immunities".
