“Benjamin Netanyahu is not welcome in New York City.” Zohran Mamdani has called on the US federal government to arrest Benjamin Neyanyahu. The New York mayor said his administration has “reviewed every avenue available under applicable law” to confirm whether he had the power to enforce the arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC), but concluded that only the federal government had the required legal authority. The Israeli prime minister is due to visit New York in September for the UN general assembly. The US is not a member of the ICC.
