United Nations: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making a whirlwind 24-hour trip to speak at the annual UN gathering of world leaders this month because "there is no option" after New York's mayor urged his arrest over the war in Gaza, Israel's UN envoy said on Tuesday.
Ambassador Danny Danon accused Mayor Zohran Mamdani of "doing politics" when he called the prime minister a "war criminal" and called for his arrest, which he had to withdraw because New York City does not have authority to take Netanyahu into custody.
