All 124 state parties to the Rome Statute are now under an obligation to arrest Netanyahu and Gallant, as well as Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif, who was also issued a warrant despite Israel's claim that he has been killed in Gaza.
A trial cannot commence in absentia and member states must hand the accused over to the court in The Hague.
Signatories to the statute include the UK, France, Germany and Spain.
