Mamdani Calls Netanyahu a War Criminal, Says He Belongs in The Hague

Bangla Press Desk: New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has said that Netanyahu belongs “in the Hague” and is “a war criminal who has been charged by the International Criminal Court”.

Netanyahu is expected to visit New York City for the UN General Assembly in September.

The mayor told a US media outlet that he was unclear on whether he had the legal authority to order the New York Police Department, which he oversees, to arrest a foreign leader like Netanyahu.

He said he was in “an active conversation” with the city’s Law Department over the matter.
