日专家：“高市早苗可能被发国际逮捕令”

据环球网，日本自由记者志叶玲12月2日在日本雅虎新闻网站发文称，日本政府计划采购以色列企业的攻击性无人机，此举受到部分日本民众的强烈反对，有专家指出日本首相高市早苗可能会因此被签发国际逮捕令。

Japanese freelance journalist Rei Shiba reported on Yahoo! Japan on Tuesday that experts have warned that Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi could face an international arrest warrant due to the government's plan to procure attack drones from an Israeli defense company, a move that has sparked strong backlash among segments of the Japanese public.

据报道，日本政府计划采购的无人机由以色列军工巨头埃尔比特系统公司制造，该公司与以军在加沙地带的行动密切相关。据反对这项采购的日本市民团体称，防卫省承认，日本政府考虑采购的无人机型号中包括被用于在加沙地带军事行动的“sky striker”无人机。

The drones, including the "sky striker" model used in Gaza, are manufactured by Israel's largest weapons maker, Elbit Systems, which is closely linked to military operations there, the Japanese Ministry of Defense confirmed.

报道称，多个团体11月27日在众议院第一议员会馆举行抗议集会，反对日本政府采购以色列无人机。抗议者表示，“加沙地带的军事行动是种族灭绝，决不允许与种族灭绝加害者保持贸易合作关系。日本政府或企业采购以色列军工企业的武器可能会被认定为种族灭绝的帮凶。”

Several civic groups protested on Nov 27, denouncing Israel's military operation in Gaza as genocide and warning that Japan's purchase of Israeli drones could be seen as aiding and abetting.

纽约大学阿布扎比分校客员教授高桥宗瑠在集会视频演讲中称，“种族灭绝是严重的国际犯罪，任何国家都有义务阻止。在当前情况下仍从以色列采购武器是对国际义务的无视，日本的政治领导人可能会因此承担刑事责任。”

报道称，正如高桥所说，如果从以色列购买无人机被认定为助长种族灭绝的行为，日本首相高市早苗和防卫大臣小泉进次郎就有可能被签发国际逮捕令。国际刑事法院此前已对以色列首相内塔尼亚胡等人发出国际逮捕令。

In a video address, NYU Abu Dhabi visiting professor Saul Takahashi said that genocide is a serious international crime, and that continuing to purchase Israeli weapons violates international obligations, potentially exposing Japan's leaders to criminal liability.

If the drone purchase is deemed to aid genocide, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Defense Minister Shinjiro Koizumi could face international arrest warrants, similar to those previously issued by the ICC for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other officials.
