Netanyahu’s UN Visit: No Photo with Trump, but Clash with Mamdani
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu used his fifteenth speech at the United Nations to attack New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, accusing him of antisemitism while denying allegations of genocide in Gaza. The visit, held shortly before Israeli elections, was widely viewed as a campaign move targeting domestic voters. Netanyahu also criticized former US Ambassador Michael Oren’s comments and expressed disappointment that President Donald Trump did not meet with him, despite thanking Trump for joint military efforts against Iran. Many delegations walked out during the speech, which referenced the Six-Day War and Netanyahu’s late brother.
