      Turkey didn’t petition the ICC, you’re thinking of the ICJ.

      The ICJ is not a criminal court. It cannot arrest or prosecute individuals. It can issue legal opinions regarding disputes between states, but it cannot enforce its opinions. For example, in 2014 it ruled that Japan could not hunt whales in Antarctica yet Japan is still hunting whales there today.

      Regardless, the ICJ has not yet issued a final opinion regarding Israel.
