Netanyahu accuses Mamdani of ‘fomenting hate' and calls ICC war-crimes charges ‘bogus'

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has accused Mamdani of fomenting hate and engaging in hate speech. This reaction follows a video address released by the mayor, which called upon the federal government to arrest Netanyahu for war crimes. In response to these allegations, Netanyahu dismissed the ICC war-crimes charges as bogus. The conflict centers on the mayor's public demand for legal action against the prime minister regarding alleged international criminal violations and the subsequent accusations of hate speech.
