Mamdani admits he can’t arrest Netanyahu — but rips him as ‘war criminal’ not welcome in NYC

Mayor Zohran Mamdani admitted he doesn’t have the authority to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu in New York City– but continued to slam the Israeli prime minister as a “war criminal” who is “not welcome,” in remarks aired Tuesday night.

The pro-Palestinian, socialist mayor said his administration legally cannot take Netanyahu into custody if he visits the Big Apple, in a video posted on X.

“It is clear we do not have the independent legal authority to enforce this warrant,” Mamdani said.
