Regardless, the international law is that they are supposed to be given a chance to do so, which they weren’t.

Israel was given notice of an investigation being opened as was required when the investigation was first opened many years ago.
So far, Israel has not provided any sort of proof that they have initiated a serious independent criminal investigation into the alleged misconduct. If they did, i suspect the warrant would go away.
You expect the Israeli courts to have started an investigation on crimes that had not yet been committed.
Find me another case of “justice” where the prosecution started before the crimes being prosecuted were allegedly committed.
The prosecution hasn't even started yet. The prosecution doesn't start until the alleged perpretators are either captured or turn themselves in (neither of which is likely to happen). Neither an investigation nor a warrant is the same thing as a trial. No evidence has been publicly presented yet, nobody has been found guilty.
Almost no other justice systems require notice that a mere investigation has been opened. So to answer your question, basically all of them.

How long should they wait, do you think, so that they are given a fair chance?
Israel did not and doesn't appear to be planning to prosecute Netanyahu for crimes against humanity, just for corruption.
It's been over a year now, with no prosecution having started on the Isreali side.
Don't you think that counts as a chance that wasn't taken?
