New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has confirmed he is consulting with the city's law department about the possibility of arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he travel to New York for the United Nations General Assembly in September. In an interview with The New York Times, Mamdani reiterated his stance that Netanyahu, who faces an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for alleged crimes against humanity in Gaza, "belongs in the Hague." He stated, "Whatever the law allows me to do in New York City, that's what we will do, but we won't be writing our own laws to that end."
