According to the Associated Press news agency, these Dutch activists condemned Benjamin Netanyahu for his recent actions during the war with Hamas. These people carried signs that read “Netanyahu is a war criminal.” Following the conflict between Hamas and the Zionist regime, several rallies in support of Palestine were held in the Netherlands. Sonia Robla, a spokeswoman for the International Criminal Court, said: "This demonstration did not cause any disruption to the normal activities of the International Criminal Court in The Hague." After police released 19 people after brief detention, they rejoined anti-Netanyahu protests outside the ICC complex. The demonstration took place as Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte arrived in the Middle East to meet with Netanyahu. The continued racist approach of the Zionist regime and the murder of the oppressed Palestinian people led the Palestinian resistance to deal heavy and irreparable blows to this regime on October 7, 2023 during Operation Al-Aqsa Storm and kill at least two thousand Zionists.
