The Prime Minister said Italian Giorgia Meloni said on Tuesday that she had been reported to the International Criminal Court on charges of alleged complicity in genocide in connection with the Israeli attack on Gaza.
Meloni added in an interview with the state-run RAI television network that Defense Minister Guido Crosetto and Foreign Minister Antonio Taianni had also been reported, indicating her “belief” that the head of the Italian Leonardo defense group, Roberto Cingolani, would also face trial.
This is the first time that Italian officials of this level have been referred to the International Criminal Court against the backdrop of the genocidal war committed by Israel in Gaza since October 7, 2023.
