Netanyahu's Unusual Flight Route: Avoiding Europe Amid ICC Arrest Warrant

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took an unprecedented flight path to New York for the UN General Assembly, largely avoiding European airspace. This move comes after the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu in 2024 over alleged war crimes in Gaza. The route, which added over two hours to his journey, bypassed countries like Italy, France, and Greece—all ICC member states. Experts suggest this decision was politically motivated to avoid potential diplomatic tensions. Watch to learn more about the implications of this unusual route and how technology is changing the landscape of international diplomacy.
Key Points:
- Netanyahu's jet avoided most of Europe, flying over Greece and Italy briefly before crossing the Mediterranean and Atlantic.
- The ICC arrest warrant for alleged war crimes in Gaza has complicated Netanyahu's travel.
- Real-time flight tracking technology has increased transparency, making diplomatic decisions more visible.
- The flight took 13 hours, compared to the usual 11-hour commercial flight from Tel Aviv to JFK.
