Mamdani backs off pledge to arrest Netanyahu citing lack of authority

Trump was responding to comments Mamdani made in an interview with the New York Times on Saturday, in which the mayor said he was having "an active conversation" with law enforcement about the possibility of enforcing the ICC arrest warrant.

In a video posted on social media, Mamdani instead called on US officials to act on the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for the Israeli Prime Minister over alleged war crimes.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who previously pledged to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu if he ed the city, now says he does not have the "authority" to do so.
