Interpol says it is studying a request from Iran for 25 Israeli officials
to be placed on its most-wanted list over Israel's offensive in Gaza.
The international police agency says it took the unusual step of
confirming the request publicly, as Iranian government officials have made
their request public.
Interpol says in a statement released Tuesday that its legal team is
studying the Iranian request for the issuance of 25 red notices, the
highest-level alert Interpol issues. The Lyon, France-based agency says it
received the request Saturday.

issue arrest warrants for 15 Israelis over the Gaza offensive in December and
