Quick Summary

During a speech at the UN General Assembly, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused New York City Mayor Eric Adams of creating an unsafe environment for Jews by not condemning anti-Semitic posts and praising individuals with extremist views. Netanyahu specifically criticized Adams for his wife's social media activity, which included praise for Hamas supporters and those who supported the 2023 Gaza Strip attack. He also mentioned efforts to prevent him from speaking at the assembly as contributing to a hostile climate for Jews in New York City.

Story summary

Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister, addressed the UN General Assembly on September 26, 2026, despite facing significant criticism and protests from both within and outside the assembly hall. Netanyahu accused New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani of supporting Hamas terrorists and called him a war criminal, threatening to expose Mamdani during his speech at the UN. Mamdani had previously vowed to arrest Netanyahu if he visited New York but later admitted that he lacked the authority to do so.

Netanyahu's appearance came amid growing international condemnation over alleged Israeli war crimes in Gaza and the occupied West Bank. Over 70 countries boycotted Netanyahu’s speech, staging a walkout during his address to highlight their disapproval. However, according to Israel’s UN ambassador Danny Danon, more than 100 delegations actually stayed in the room.

The incident underscores Netanyahu's political isolation as he faces an upcoming election in October 2026 and declining support for Israel among US voters. Polls indicate a loss of faith in Netanyahu domestically, with sixty percent of Americans now having an unfavorable view of Israel compared to forty-two percent in 2022. Meanwhile, Israeli forces continued controversial actions such as dropping "skunk water" on Palestinians in Gaza and demolishing homes in the West Bank.
