Online flight trackers show that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu flew hundreds of kilometres through Canadian airspace on his way to meet U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday — despite Prime Minister Mark Carney previously saying he would honour an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Netanyahu is wanted by the ICC for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Carney was asked last October by Bloomberg if “Netanyahu would be arrested if he came to Canada.”
The prime minister twice responded “yes.”
