Summary
Zohran Mamdani answered Benjamin Netanyahu's latest attack by calling him the subject of a 2024 ICC arrest warrant and an "architect of horrific genocide against Palestinians."
Netanyahu had accused the New York mayor of supporting Hamas and inciting unrest against Jewish New Yorkers in a video posted Tuesday, saying he would "tell the truth" about Mamdani at the U.N.
The clash comes days before Netanyahu is due in New York for the U.N. General Assembly, sharpening a feud that has already spilled into debate over protests and whether the city could act on the warrant.
Mamdani had earlier explored enforcing the ICC warrant, then acknowledged New York City could not do so on its own; he has since said he will not join protests, while defending New Yorkers' right to demonstrate.
