After Mayor Mamdani's 'war criminal', ‘arrest’ remarks, Netanyahu says 'I will come to New York'
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said he intends to travel to New York in September to address the United Nations General Assembly.
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani declared Netanyahu 'not welcome' in the city and called on the US federal government to enforce an International Criminal Court arrest warrant against Netanyahu.
Netanyahu dismissed the International Criminal Court's war crimes charges against him as 'bogus'.
Netanyahu accused Mamdani of aligning with 'Hamas murderers' and supporting the October 7 attack on Israel.
During his mayoral campaign, Mamdani said he would seek to order local police to enforce the ICC's arrest warrant for Netanyahu.
