Israel's UN Envoy Says NYC Mayor, Not Netanyahu, Belongs in Custody

Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon said July 18, 2026, that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani — not Prime Minister Netanyahu — should be arrested. The remark followed Mamdani's position that Netanyahu should face arrest if he visits NYC, though the mayor admitted he would not change city law to enforce it. Neither statement rests on any identified legal mechanism.
