Israel's top diplomat at the United Nations wants New York City's mayor arrested for supporting Hamas and inciting hostility toward Jews, turning Zohran Mamdani's own arrest rhetoric back on him.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani branded Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a "war criminal" and called for his arrest, but critics say he offered no such challenge when Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian landed in the same city.
