Mamdani goes back on campaign promise, says NYC can't arrest Netanyahu
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani reversed his campaign pledge to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, acknowledging NYC lacks legal authority to enforce an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant against him. Mamdani called on the federal government to act if Netanyahu visits New York for the United Nations General Assembly in September, while Netanyahu's office dismissed the ICC as a 'kangaroo court.'
