🇺🇸🇮🇱 U.S. Congressman Ro Khanna Joins Calls Regarding ICC Warrant for Netanyahu

U.S. Representative Ro Khanna (D-California) has joined New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani in calling for the U.S. federal government to enforce the International Criminal Court (ICC) arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he enters the United States. However, New York City officials have clarified that the city itself does not have the legal authority to execute the warrant.

The ICC issued arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and former Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant in 2024 over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel rejects the allegations, and neither Israel nor the United States is a member of the ICC.
