New York Mayor Declares No Authority to Arrest Israeli PM Netanyahu
New York City Mayor Zoran Mamdani stated in a video that he does not have the authority to enforce an arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He emphasized that all possible avenues were examined, but enforcement power lies with the federal government, not the city. Mamdani began his remarks with strong accusations against Netanyahu, labeling him a war criminal and the architect of a horrific genocide against the Palestinian people. He held Netanyahu responsible for the deaths of over 73,000 individuals, injuries, and severe disabilities inflicted on tens of thousands of children, including survivors undergoing amputations without anesthesia. Additionally, Mamdani accused Netanyahu of ordering attacks on neonatal hospitals and maternity care centers, depriving newborns of the chance to live.
