NEW: Mayor Zohran Mamdani hits back after Israeli PM Netanyahu singled him out at the UN, telling the mayor "shame on you" and called him out for attempting to "silence" him: • • "As he has done time and again, Prime Minister Netanyahu used his speech to repeat baseless lies meant to sanitize his genocide of Palestinians." • • "Yet no lie can change the fact that he remains the subject of an International Criminal Court arrest warrant alleging war crimes and crimes against humanity.”

NETANYAHU VS. MAMDANI: The Israeli prime minister took a moment during his UN address to confront New York City's mayor. • • "You tried to silence me. Well, you can't silence me. You can't silence the truth," Netanyahu tells Zohran Mamdani from the podium. • • He rejected Mamdani's genocide and "war criminal" accusations, saying he came to the U.N. to "tell the truth" — after Mamdani said he’d make good on the ICC’s arrest warrant the moment he touched down in NYC.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has denounced New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani during his UN General Assembly (UNGA) address

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in his speech to the United Nations General Assembly, rejected the accusation of genocide against Israel, calling it “the biggest lie of the century.” He said Israel had done more to reduce civilian casualties than any other military, citing the distribution of humanitarian aid and the IDF’s efforts to warn civilians. Netanyahu also criticized New York Mayor Zahran Mamdani, saying he was fueling anti-Semitism by accusing Israel of genocide and supporting Hamas figures. He added that the atmosphere had made many New York Jews no longer feel safe.

New details ahead of the Prime Minister's speech at the UN General Assembly that we published in the edition | The Prime Minister will deliver his speech here at the UN General Assembly building in a little over an hour, and he arrives on this stage after several difficult days for Israel in this arena, which has always been complex and hostile to Israel. This year it seems to have crossed another threshold. Netanyahu will speak in an unprecedentedly hostile atmosphere, with the assessment being that there will be provocations in the hall. The Israeli delegation is preparing for the ambassadors of many countries who are expected to protest and wave signs against Israel. Netanyahu will focus the speech, of course, on Iran, but he will also respond to attacks against Israel, as well as that of New York Mayor Mamadani. Netanyahu will also mention in his speech the injury of the son of the Israeli ambassador to the US, to emphasize that Israel is fighting terror in both Gaza and Judea and Samaria. It is likely that we will also see a reference to the words of French President Macron, who ignorantly claimed that Hamas does not operate in the West Bank. Regarding the meetings that the prime minister will hold here, these were organized for him at short notice by the ambassador to the UN and by his office, but these are not the meetings that he would have wanted. He is not meeting any of the senior Trump administration officials. In terms of European leaders, he is only meeting two heads of state, Greece and Slovenia. One more thing, there is a lot of talk here about the issue of Netanyahu's security. It is true that he landed here at a remote military airport and there are threats and concerns, but security sources emphasize: "If the Prime Minister's Office had decided that Netanyahu would stay overnight in New York due to a political schedule, there would have been an appropriate and meticulous security response."
